After burying their bodies in the backyard, he rented out the house and informed his parents that his brothers were missing. The crime came to light when his ex-wife informed the police, and during interrogation, Adnan confessed to the murders, explaining it was to prevent them from sharing the inheritance.
Meanwhile, in Dera Murad Jamali, unidentified armed men opened fire on a car, killing two people instantly. The attackers fled the scene, and law enforcement officials transported the bodies to a hospital upon arrival.
Separately, in the Sariab area, unidentified gunmen killed a man named Mushtaq Ahmed outside a sessions court. Authorities suggest this fatal attack was also motivated by a property dispute.
