Police said Muhammad Noman, the main accused in the Laiba Ijaz case, died of wounds after an attack in Islamabad.

Four men on two motorcycles fired on the police team, which police said appeared to be an attempt to free him.

Sources said a separate fraud case in Mansehra names Noman, and a court has declared him a proclaimed offender.

Police are looking for the attackers and anyone who helped them.
