An angry father on Tuesday shot dead his young son over his refusal to give money for a new business, here on Tuesday afternoon. Israeel, 55, had needed money for a new business at Lyari Khadda Market and had been asking his 25-year-old son Wajid who had been running a burger shop for the arrangement of money.

However, on refusal, he opened fire at the son in Keamari, the jurisdictions of Jackson police station. He fled the scene leaving the son in a pool of blood. Police said Israeel was unhappy with his sons over family related matters for many days and had been making complaints against them with relatives and neighbours.

On Tuesday morning, the frustrated Israeel warned his wife he would kill the son. Sensing the severity of his anger, the wife rushed towards the concerned police station to inform the officials. However, he had gunned down the son and had fled from the scene before she came back from the station.

The duty officer Jackson police station Saifur Rehman said the body of the victim was shifted to Civil Hospital Karachi (CHK) for medico-legal formalities. "Since the murder has been committed by the father, the state will lodge FIR against him once the autopsy is done by the hospital authorities," he said.
