Murder on Lahore’s Canal Road linked to underworld gang war

LAHORE: The decades-old rivalry between two underworld dons of Lahore — Khwaja Gulshan alias Teefi Butt and the slain Arif Ameer alias Tipu Truckanwala — reportedly took another ugly turn on Monday when Butt’s brother-in-law was shot dead while his sister was critically injured by the sharpshooters near the FC College Underpass on the Canal Road.

The attack on the family members of Teefi Butt is being seen as a sign of looming threats of a gang war in the provincial capital.
