Subheadline: Two people, including a woman, were injured near Islamabad’s Dam-e-Koh signal as police registered an FIR against an unidentified driver; sources linked the government vehicle to the son of National Assembly Interior Committee Chairman Raja Khurram Shahzad Nawaz.
ISLAMABAD: October 18, 2026: Two people, including a woman, were injured when a vehicle reportedly belonging to the government collided with a motorcycle near the Dam-e-Koh traffic signal on Margalla Road in Islamabad. Police sources alleged that the vehicle was being driven by the son of Member of the National Assembly (MNA) Raja Khurram Shahzad Nawaz, who chairs the National Assembly Standing Committee on Interior and Narcotics Control.
The incident occurred on Saturday evening, October 17, prompting a police response and the registration of a First Information Report (FIR) at Kohsar Police Station.
According to the FIR reviewed for this report, a Honda 125 motorcycle was struck from behind by a white vehicle bearing registration number GAW-308 near the Margalla Road traffic signal.
The complainant stated that he was travelling on his motorcycle with his mother when the vehicle approached from behind and collided with them, causing both riders to fall and sustain injuries.
The motorcycle was also damaged in the collision.
FIR Registered at Kohsar Police Station
According to the police document, FIR No. 687/26 was registered at Kohsar Police Station on October 17, 2026, under Sections 279, 427 and 337-G of the Pakistan Penal Code.
These provisions relate to rash or negligent driving, damage to property and causing injuries through rash or negligent driving.
The police record identifies approximately 8:00 pm as the time of the incident, while the report was formally recorded at 9:40 pm.
The complainant alleged that the vehicle was being driven carelessly and at excessive speed when it struck the motorcycle.
Following the collision, Rescue 1122 personnel assisted the injured individuals, who were subsequently taken to hospital for medical treatment.
The FIR also refers to the medical examination of the injured persons and the collection of medico-legal documentation as part of the proceedings.
MNA’s Son Allegedly Behind the Wheel
Police sources cited in media reports claimed that the person driving the vehicle was the son of Raja Khurram Shahzad Nawaz.
However, the FIR itself describes the driver as an unidentified individual and does not specifically name the parliamentarian’s son.
The reported identification of the driver therefore remains a matter requiring confirmation through the police investigation.
Raja Khurram Shahzad Nawaz represents Islamabad’s NA-48 constituency and serves as Chairman of the National Assembly Standing Committee on Interior and Narcotics Control.
His parliamentary position has brought additional public attention to the circumstances surrounding the incident, particularly the reported use of a government vehicle.
Questions Over Government Vehicle Usage
The incident has raised questions about who was authorised to operate the vehicle and whether its use at the time complied with applicable government procedures.
Although media reports have identified GAW-308 as an official vehicle, the FIR does not independently establish the vehicle’s departmental ownership or provide details of the driver’s authorisation.
These matters remain subject to verification by the relevant authorities.
The reported involvement of a family member of a parliamentarian also makes transparency in the investigation particularly important.
Police Investigation Continues
Police personnel responded following the incident, and the matter is being investigated at Kohsar Police Station.
The FIR records the complainant’s account of the collision, the injuries sustained and the damage caused to the motorcycle. These allegations will require examination alongside medical records, witness statements and other available evidence.
As of the latest information reviewed, the precise legal status of the reported driver, the final medical condition of the injured individuals and the question of authorised vehicle usage had not been independently confirmed.
No conclusive finding of responsibility can be drawn from the registration of an FIR alone.
The case remains under investigation, with further clarification expected from the relevant authorities regarding the identity of the driver and the circumstances of the collision.
