GWADAR: Three bullet-riddled bodies, including that of a newly married man, were found in the Tehsil Tump area of Gwadar district on Friday.

Police said the bodies were recovered from two different locations after locals informed the administration about their dumping in Gomazi and Dazan areas.

Upon receiving the information, police rushed to the sites and shifted the bodies to the hospital for further investigation.

The newly married man, identified as Imran Nadil, was kidnapped by the unknown armed men from his home in the Gomazi area. His body was later found dumped near Dazan Cross. Imran had married just a week earlier.

Locals said Imran was kidnapped for ransom and was killed after he refused to pay. Multiple bullet wounds caused his death. The body was handed over to his family after identification.

More bodies found

Meanwhile, two more bodies were found dumped on the outskirts of Turbat and shifted to the district hospital. They were identified as Abubakar and Tahir Ahmed, residents of Balangar and Shooli areas of Dasht Kandan.

Locals said that both men had been missing for several weeks. Their bodies were handed over to their families after completion of medico-legal formalities. Police are investigating the cases.
