RAJKOT: A woman and her 21-year-old daughter were battling for life after being shot at by their neighbour following a quarrel in
Bhavnagar
city on Thursday.
The accused Karim
Sher Ali Rashiyani
picked up a fight with his neighbour
Anwar
Ali, a rickshaw driver, over the pile of cement and sand kept outside the latter's house for renovation work.
The verbal altercation took a serious turn when Anwar's wife
Fareeda
(50) and daughter Fariyal (21) intervened to save him from Karim's wrath. Karim rushed inside his house, brought a pistol and shot both women.
Fariyal suffered a bullet wound in the head while her mother was shot near the left eye, said DG Zala, inspector, Gangajalya
police
station.
"Both women are in a critical condition in Sir T Hospital," he said.
Karim is on the run.
