Police in Lahore’s Manawan area shot dead Fraasat Ali, the main suspect in a case involving the snatching of earrings from an elderly woman, along with his accomplice, Jon Shah, during an encounter. 

 

Both men were wanted in connection with multiple serious criminal cases.

 

According to reports, the CCD Cantt team made efforts to arrest the suspects when they opened fire on officers. SHO Atif Zulfiqar survived after bullets struck his bulletproof vest.

 

A few days earlier, Fraasat Ali snatched earrings from an elderly woman in Ghaziabad and fled. After the video of the incident went viral, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz ordered their arrest.
