Three killed after row breaks out over cricket match in Nowshera

NOWSHERA: Three people were killed in a firing incident in Pabbi tehsil of Nowshera late Saturday night after a row over a cricket match.

The incident took place after a row broke out between two groups following a fight during a cricket match among children.

The adults of the children’s families started quarreling but the matter was settled at a jirga.    

Nevertheless, a man from one of the groups opened fire in the neighbourhood following the jirga, killing a woman and her two sons.

One person was arrested for opening fire, while four others managed to escape.
