Pakistan air force captain gunned down in broad daylight while rescuing woman

The incident took place at Shaheen Chowk, a busy intersection under the jurisdiction of the Margalla Police Station. The officer, identified as Group Captain Asim Tariq, was driving along Ninth Avenue when he reportedly saw a man on a motorcycle trying to force a woman onto his vehicle.

According to Samaa TV, Tariq stopped to intervene, allowing the woman enough time to escape to the other side of the road.

The suspect, identified as Saad, allegedly abused the Air Force officer before pulling out a gun and opening fire. Tariq sustained fatal bullet injuries and died at the scene, while the accused fled.
