Peshawar, Pakistan: Two people, including a Sikh hakeem (local doctor), were hurt in a gun attack in Peshawar city of Pakistan on Tuesday, media reports said.

Saddar Circle SP Farhan Khan told reporters as quoted by The Dawn at the Malik Saad Shaheed police lines that Bipinder Singh was targeted by an armed man in his Kohat Road clinic.

He said the Sikh hakeem suffered a bullet injury in his thigh and the other man in his hand.

The official said the attacker, Ahmad, had been detained and that he was a drug addict with a criminal record.

The Rehman Baba police station didn’t register an FIR of the attack until night.

Search is currently on to find another suspect in the attack.
