KARACHI: Six murder convicts were hanged in Punjab and Sindh prisons on Wednesday, while execution of two were halted, Express News reported.
Over 50 criminals have been hanged since the government lifted moratorium on death penalty last year in the wake of militant attack on Army Public School which killed at least 150 people, mostly school children.
The latest executions took place at Sukkur Central Jail, Mianwali Central Jail, Lahore’s Kot Lakhpat Jail, Bahawalpur Central Jail and Sahiwal Central Jail.
