TANDO ADAM: An angry lynch mob killed one man and injured two others in Tando Adam, Geo News reported.

Reportedly, the local residents of Joharabad area of Tando Adam here attacked a house after they suspected that illicit activities were going on in there.

Allegedly the neighbours went berserk after finding out three men have brought a woman of easy virtue into a house with fornicatory intent.

Acting in a vigilante manner, they put a lock on the main gate and called the police. Seeing the people in such a bad mood, the besieged occupants of the house sent a stress call to their fellows to get them out of there.

According to sources the comrades of the men trapped in the house came to rescue them and fired shots in the air to disperse the angry vigilantes. In the height of panic their firing injured a young boy, which maddened the mob to an extent that they dragged the men inside the house out and subjected them to the most savage of tortures killing a man, 50, and seriously injuring his young accomplices.

Police as usual arrived late only to take the tortured victims into custody, including the girl.

More details are awaited.
