According to initial reports, Shahida Bibi and her husband, Shahid Abbas, were in constant dispute following Abbas's decision to marry for the third time. Unable to deal with the situation any longer, Shahida resorted to poisoning her husband as well as her six-month-old daughter and six-year-old son from her previous marriage.
Initial investigations reveal that the woman poisoned her children and husband in the late hours of Sunday. Shahida then called her brother-in-law at around 5am to inform him of what had happened and her decision to commit suicide.
Upon hearing the news, he informed all family members to rush to Shahida's home, but they were unable to reach her in time as she had already committed suicide.

@Sami: Your comment makes no sense at all. What do you want the State or the Police to do in this case?? The woman killed her husband, and her two children, and then killed herself. That's the end of story. There is no sense in pursuing the matter any further because everyone involved is gone.
Police will not investigate by itself to reach at depth because there will be no complainant. State does not take responsibility that is why crimes and suicidal cases are increasing. Few months before in my area,a brother killed his sister for honour and police did not register FIR and lodge investigation because there was no complainant. Such a pathetic state of law and order.
