A retired colonel of Pakistani army was gunned down today by two unidentified assailants here.
The bike-borne assailants chased his car and opened fire on the busy Shahrah-e-Faisal road near the Baluch colony flyover, police said.
"This appears to be a target killing. He was shot by a 9 mm pistol," a senior police officer said.
Two passersby were also injured in the attack when stray bullets hit them.
