KARACHI: A local court in Karachi sent a Rangers man accused in the shooting of a taxi driver on physical remand until July 22.
The taxi driver, identified as Murid Abbas, was shot dead in Karachi's Gulistan-i-Jauhar locality on Tuesday when he did not stop his vehicle upon being signalled to do so by Rangers personnel.
Today, a court in Karachi ordered physical remand for Lance Naik Ghulam Rasool, a Rangers man who fired five shots at Abbas and is now facing murder charges.
Rasool was subsequently handed over to the police.
Police has moreover claimed that three other Rangers men nominated in the case had managed to escape and were on the run.
Tuesdays was the second such incident in recent weeks as last month another unarmed civilian was killed by Rangers in Shah Faisal Colony for the same reason.
