Pakistan: Seven die as their vehicle is sprayed with bullets
Quetta: Seven people, including a tribal elder and his two brothers, died after the vehicle in which they were travelling was sprayed with bullets in Pakistan's Balochistan region, media reports said on Saturday.
Levies officials told Dawn News that the incident happened in the Khurlam area of Murgha Kibzai, some 80 kilometres from Zhob town.
