Prayer leader Pir Muhammad of Jodh Singh village had a property dispute with his brother Muhammad Ashraf.

The two brothers exchanged hot words over the issue. Ashraf first stabbed and killed his 12-year-old niece Nazia Bibi, then took Pir Muhammad and Bashiran Bibi to the nearby graveyard, butchered them and fled away.

On information, Kasur SSP Ghulam Muhammad Kalyar reached the spot. Pattoki Saddar police have yet to register a case.

In Muhallah Ibrahimabad, some unknown culprits killed Parveen Bibi, 17, and Nasim Bibi, 19, after intoxicating them.
