QUETTA, March 12: Two bullet-riddled bodies were found in Aab-i-Gum area of Bolan district and two men were shot dead in Quetta and Khuzdar on Tuesday.

Levies Force personnel took the bodies to the Mach Civil Hospital after local people informed the administration about the bodies in their area.

“They had been shot in the head and chest,” Levies officials said.

The victims were identified through slips of paper found in their pockets as Sikandar Qambarani and Baz Khan Marri.

They had gone missing two days back from their native areas.

A banned group claimed the responsibility for killing them.
