According to authorities, the incident occurred during a wedding ceremony in a residential society near Thokar Niaz Beg, when an armed assailant opened fire on Balaj Tipu, who had recently joined the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), killing him on the scene.

Police revealed that two additional people were injured by bullets during the shooting. Meanwhile, authorities reported that the suspect was also killed in retaliatory firing by Tipu’s gunmen.

The police stated they are thoroughly investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident and the possible intentions behind it.
