Islamabad: Four people were killed and seven women sustained critical injuries after a group of men opened fire at them for stopping them from blocking the road in Rawalpindi’s Kallar Syedan tehsil on Saturday.

The attackers wanted to build a wall near their paternal uncle’s house in Samut village, a private news channel reported. The women were moved to DHQ Hospital.

The men opened fire because they were told not to block the way. They fled the scene after the attack.

Police are searching for the men to bring them to justice.
