Police arrested the victim’s three brother-in-laws – Mohammad Zada, Qalar Khan and Gul Zada – under section 302/34 of the Pakistan Penal Code from Asharey village after a murder case was registered against them by her brother, Mohammad Jan. He also accused Zada’s wife, Samina, of being an accomplice in the crime. He told the police that his sister had domestic problems since her husband, Raza Khan, is mentally unwell.
