According to the police, four Chinese engineers – Lee Xian, Raoly Yang, Yau Yaw and Wang Yu Yang – exchanged heated arguments with the villagers of Chak No 6-JB on Tuesday, as the water released by the villagers for irrigation was causing damage to a small bridge being constructed over a canal drain near Motorway (M-4) in Kamal Pur.

In retaliation, the infuriated villagers attacked the Chinese engineers with clubs and axes.

The police registered a case against seven suspects and have arrested five of them namely, Musharraf, Ghulam Murtaza, Allah Rahm, Shaukat and Qamar.
