LAHORE: A young man who married 15 days ago was shot dead in a dispute in Raiwind on Friday. Police said that Muhammad Sarwar, 25, a resident of Jhang had come to Lahore for his wedding a few days ago.
| The fact that he was a resident of Jhang might explain the gunfire... |
Sarwar visited a local fair being held in the area on Thursday where he fell into an argument with another visitor Niaz over showering money on eunuchs. Both men started fighting on the issue.
| I think I can honestly say that even in the most pugnacious days of my youth, I have never been in a fist fight over a eunoch. In fact, I don't even know anyone who has. |
| Would you admit it if you had been? |
| I don't even think I know anybody who would. |
People at the fair resolved the matter by sending Sarwar and Niaz home.
| "Youse dere! Knock it off! Mahmoud! Throw 'em out!" |
On Friday, Niaz and his three accomplices waylaid Sarwar when he came to his wife's house at Moza Khan village.
| "Here he comes! Gimme the shutter gun, quick!" |
They shot at Sarwar and his brother Asghar when they were coming out of the house.
| [BANG!] "Take that, fondler of eunochs!" |
Sarwar and Asghar were taken to the hospital where Sarwar died after initial treatment.
"We'll have to operate, nurse!"
"Rosebud! [Rattle!]" |
Police registered a case against Niaz and his accomplices on Asghar's complaint. |
