GUJRANWALA: Two dacoits killed a man on resistance after robbing him of Rs 800,000 at Khokhar Kay on Jinnah Road on Monday.

Maqsood, 50, of Saharan Street had returned from Saudi Arabia about three days ago. On the day of the incident, the dacoits intercepted Maqsood outside his house and tried to rob him of the amount, which he drew from a bank, but he resisted. It infuriated the dacoits and they shot him dead. The dacoits escaped with the amount. Jinnah Road police have registered a case and started investigation.
