“The officer sustained multiple gunshot wounds and showed signs of torture before he was killed,” a police source said. His body has been shifted to Mastung District Hospital for a post-mortem.
Police have collected forensic evidence, including bullet casings and blood samples, as part of an ongoing investigation to establish a motive and any possible connection between the two incidents.
Senior police officers in Balochistan expressed deep grief over the killing, calling it “a great loss to the force” and vowed to bring those responsible to justice.
