KARACHI: The Kharadar police on Sunday registered a case against three policemen for attempted murder and robbery.

The police said that the three policemen allegedly shot at and wounded a private security guard, Mohaib Husain, in the Kharadar plastic market on late Saturday night over some issue. He sustained bullet wound on his leg and was hospitalised.

The electronic media reported that the policemen were allegedly under influence and attacked the guard who objected over it.

However, a Kharadar police officer claimed that the policemen wounded the guard because he objected to their sitting in the market.

The police have registered an FIR (354/2016) against the three policemen Danish, Hashmat and Sami on the complaint of the wounded guard.
