Two robbers killed in Shahdra police ‘encounter’

Two suspected robbers were killed in an alleged encounter with police in the Shahdra area of Lahore. The suspects, identified as Imran alias Chota and Latif alias Tifa, were allegedly killed in the firing of their own accomplices. The incident occurred when the police party was taking the robbers to the hiding place of their accomplices and came under fire from the robbers in a hideout.

Police retaliated effectively, but the burglars managed to escape under the cover of darkness. However, both under-custody outlaws sustained injuries and died before being shifted to a nearby hospital. Preliminary investigations suggest that the alleged robbers were involved in dozens of robberies, house heists, and attempted murders.

During the encounter, the police recovered looted valuables, cash, and weapons from the two suspects. Different police teams have been formed to track down the fleeing criminals.

Citizens have expressed their support for the police’s efforts to combat crime and ensure the safety of the public. They are hopeful that the recent encounter will serve as a deterrent to other criminals and contribute to a safer environment in the area.
