ROHRI (NNI): The Sindh Rangers claimed on Friday that three terrorists were killed in a shootout in Rohri while they were attempting to target an Imambargah.
A spokesperson of the paramilitary force said the attackers did not stop when signaled to at a checkpoint, adding that an exchange of fire ensued in which the three suspects were killed.
