Earlier the Police have registered an accident case against the accused driver Mohammad Atif, who hit the poor labourer Mohammad Javed, a resident of Shakardara village soon after hitting his handcart near Railway Park on Wednesday. He later escaped from the scene.

The deceased’s relatives along with other village fellows gathered outside the police station and staged a protest against the killing.
