Following an assault on University of Okara professor Dr. Anwarul Haq, Sumsam Bukhari, a former provincial minister, and his son have been charged in connection with the crime.
Authorities have begun a detailed investigation into the event, which happened in front of the university entrance on Monday.
Police sources state that unknown attackers in a vehicle fired shots at and injured Professor Dr. Haq. After the shots, the assailants quickly left the area, leaving the professor injured.
A complaint has been filed against ten people in reaction to the attack, including Hassan Bukhari, the son of former regional minister Sumsam Bukhari, and his father. The involvement of well-known individuals in the case underscores how serious the issue is and how quickly the authorities are handling it.
While detectives actively try to determine the facts leading up to the occurrence, the attack’s motivation is still unknown. Law enforcement is pursuing leads and gathering evidence, while the University of Okara and the larger community are waiting for additional details.
The professor of Islamic Studies was reportedly fired at after the as-yet-unidentified assailants were unable to capture him. Unidentified suspects tried to abduct Dr. Haq when they caught his car as he was leaving the school. When he offered resistance, the perpetrators fired at him, hurting him, then fled the scene.
For medical attention, the wounded professor was sent to the DHQ hospital.
