Three dacoits were killed when the car they were sitting in fell into a ravine following an encounter with the police in Jamshoro, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Sunday.

According to the SSP Jamshoro Muhammad Tariq Nawaz, the police tried to stop the Suzuki car in which the outlaws were travelling near Manzoorabad. “But the dacoits opened fire at the cops instead. Although the cops remained safe, the driver of the car lost control of the vehicle due to which it fell into a ravine, resulting in the deaths of all three of them. However, two of their accomplices reportedly escaped from the spot,” he said, adding, “Bodies of the dacoits have been shifted to hospital while investigation has begun.”
