Peshawar: Grocery-store owner shot dead in Shabqadar tehsil

A grocery-store owner in Charsadda's Shabqadar tehsil has been shot dead by unknown assailants in his shop.

Malikabad area residents and police sources allege that the man, who they claim was not of sound mind, called himself a prophet.

Shabqadar Station House Officer Murtaza Khan, however, denied the claims, saying the crime appears to be a case of personal enmity.

The man's family registered an FIR against unknown assailants.
