In the first incident, four dacoits snatched a motorcycle from Muhammad Waqas near Kasur Grid Station on Ferozpur Road. In the meantime, Mustafabad police chased the dacoits and intercepted them near Ramthaman village. On seeing the police, the dacoits opened fire at the police party, which was retaliated. Later, two dacoits fled while leaving the dead bodies of their two accomplices who were identified as Arshad alias Acchee and Shabbir alias Kaka of Dafto village. The dacoits were involved in several cases of heinous crimes including robberies. However, the police claimed that the dacoits were killed by the firing of their own accomplices.
