Woman falls victim to ‘honour killing’ in Gulberg in Karachi

2019-08-17

[DAWN] A young married woman fell victim to ’honour killing’ in the Gulberg area, police said on Thursday.

Area SHO Rafay Tanoli said the suspect, Javed, had attacked his wife, Khalida Bibi, 25, with a hard and blunt weapon in Block-13 of FB Area on Tuesday and fled.

She was taken to the Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, where she died during treatment on Thursday.

The SHO said the victim worked as a domestic servant in the area while her husband was jobless.

The murder appeared to be linked with so-called honour, said Mr Tanoli.

The police have started the paperwork but haven't done much else against the suspect on a complaint of the victim’s father.

#1 For instruction of Mussulmen young,
An aria (not to be sung!),
Thrice ten variations
On killing relations,
And one on how not to get hung.
