On a secret tip-off, the police said, a raiding party of the AVCC signaled a car at Northern by-pass to stop, however, the riders tried to escape while resorting to firing on the police party.

However, the police managed to arrest the riders after exchange of fire. The riders were identified as Wali Muhammad Wallo and Hasnain.

Wali Muhammad is wanted in Chinese engineers’ murder case, besides several cases of kidnap for ransom wanted in Sindh and Balochistan, the police said.

A court had issued the warrants of Wali Muhammad in the Chinese engineers’ murder case two months back.
