CHINIOT (Dunya News/Web Desk) – A farmer was shot dead over a monetary dispute in Chiniot as the victim demanded to pay for the animal feed the murderer had bought earlier.

According to details, the farmer had asked the landlord for the money, which infuriated him, as he opened fire, resulting in fatal wounds and leaving him dead on the spot.
Police are investigating the matter and carrying out raids to arrest the suspect who had managed to flee scene after committing the gruesome murder.
