The police have started the investigation on the attack on the Former Federal Minister and Muslim League Nawaz (PMLN) leader Sheikh Aftab Ahmed, who came under attack on late Monday night when he was returning from an election meeting.
It is reported that Ahmed was with his son Salman Sarwar when the attack occurred. The police have found three bullet holes on the automobile.
The incident took place while the former minister was returning from an election meeting in Kamra village.
Hassan Asad Alvi, Attock District Police Officer, said that he reached Ahmed’s house after the incident. An investigation team has been appointed, comprising of senior police officers to delve into the matter.
It is reported that Ahmed’s security was withdrawn a week ago.
The recent incident has been an addition to a series of attacks on election candidates all over the country.
