PESHAWAR: A number of people were arrested for firing in crowded places after their videos went viral in the last few days.

Police officials said two accused were arrested when they opened fire on a shop in Zargarabad and made video of it. The provincial government took notice of the incident after a video of firing with automatic weapons in a bazaar went viral.

Another video of a clash between many people in Hashtnagri went viral. Two people were said to be wounded and taken to hospital when a group of rivals tortured them after a clash in the bazaar. Raids are being conducted to arrest those seen in the videos.
