Brother killed Qandeel over 'taunts by friends', says mother
[DAWN] The mother of Qandeel Baloch, the social media sensation who was murdered in a so-called 'honour' killing, said her son strangled his sister after being taunted by his friends over her behaviour.The murder of Qandeel, who shot to fame posting risque videos and statements on Facebook, shone a spotlight on such killings and re-ignited calls for legislative action to curb the crime. Speaking to AFP from her home in the village of Shah Sadar Din, Baloch's mother Anwar Wai wept as she recalled the shocking death at the hands of brother Muhammad Wasim. "He killed my daughter after being taunted by his friends. They would infuriate him and tell him she is bringing you dishonour," she said, surrounded by her husband as well as an adult son and daughter. Posted by: Fred 2016-07-28 |
