DERA MURAD JAMALI/GWADAR: Three people, including a woman, were killed in two separate incidents in Tamboo and Dera Bugti districts while body of a young man was found in Mirani dam area of Turbat on Thursday.

In the first incident, a woman and a man were shot dead in Khankot area of Tamboo in what police described as an alleged case of karo-kari (honour killing).

Bodies of the two victims were shifted to hospital and later handed over to their family members while police have registered a case and launched a search for the murderers. In another incident in Dera Bugti’s Sui area, a clash between two factions of the Bugti Sundrani tribe left a young man, Abdul Sattar Sundrani Bugti, dead. Levies personnel reached the area, took the body into custody, and shifted it to a local hospital.

Meanwhile, police found the body of a young man in Mirani dam area of Turbat on Thursday.
