Las week, Ahsan Shah, was killed by the firing of his “accomplices”.

According to sources, the CIA team was taking Ahsan Shah to Shadbagh “for a recovery when Shah’s accomplices opened fire on the CIA team.”

Shah was believed to be a close friend of Balaj and was accused of providing information to key suspects, including Teefi Butt, about Balaj’s presence at a wedding party in Chuhng. On February 19, Balaj was murdered by a hitman named Muzaffar Hussain. The assailant was subsequently killed on the spot by Balaj’s bodyguards.

Ameer Balaj’s father, Tipu Truckanwala, was also killed in a gun attack at Lahore’s Allama Iqbal International Airport in 2010.
