Sahiwal man shoots two sisters dead in 'honour killing'
2016-03-03
[DAWN] Police in Sahiwal are tracing a man who rubbed out both his sisters in an apparent "honour killing".

Mohammad Asif had previously murdered his mother four or five years ago, according to police, before being pardoned at the time by his family and set free.

The latest killings occurred in the village of Noorshah in Sahiwal district, in the central province of Punjab.

"Mohammad Asif, who is in his late twenties, shot his two sisters late last night because he doubted their characters and was against their lifestyle," local police official Allah Ditta Bhatti told AFP.

He said the sisters was struck down in his prime while Asif fled.

"He had killed his mother around four or five years ago and was set free after his family pardoned him," Bhatti said.

The incident was confirmed by other officials at the local cop shoppe.

On Monday a father in Lahore rubbed out his 18-year-old daughter because she could not account for where she had been for about five hours.

#1  I guess "honor killings" are Ok as long as you keep it in the family.
