Hakeem Satnam Singh Khalsa was shot by unidentified gunmen while he was at his shop. Four bullets hit him and he is reported to have died on the spot.

Satnam Singh was a respectable among the Sikh community of Peshawar and he was a popular Hakeen, practitioner of Unnani (Greek) medicine.

Police are looking at all the angle including involvement of terrorists in the dastardly act.
