FAISALABAD:
A woman was killed for ‘honour’ and another was shot dead for refusing to reconcile with her husband in Langrana and Millat Town police precincts on Monday.
A Langrana police spokesperson said Muhammad Mansha, a resident of Chak 237, had murdered his wife after he accused her of having an affair with a man from the same village.
He said Mansha and Kaneez Bibi had married a few years ago and had two children.
Mansha had suspected his wife of cheating on him and had argued with her about this several times. On Monday, he again had an argument with her and accused her of infidelity. He then used a .12 bore shotgun to shoot her several times, the spokesperson said.
Kaneez Bibi died before she could be treated.
Police were informed. They arrived at Mansha’s house and arrested him and seized the shotgun.
The police handed over the body to relatives for burial after completing legal formalities.
The spokesperson said the suspect had been sent to a lock up and would be interrogated.
Separately, Nadeem, a resident of Jhang, visited his in-laws’ house at Bawa Chowk, Ali Town, on Sargodha Road, on Monday to reconcile differences with his estranged wife, a Millat Town police spokesperson said. He murdered his wife after she refused to return to his house and injured his mother-in-law and a sister-in-law, police said.
He said that Nadeem and Rida had married a few years ago and had two children. They had developed differences a few weeks ago and she had moved in with her parents.
Nadeem went to her parents’ house in Ali Town on Monday, apparently seeking reconciliation.
However, he got into an argument with his in-laws there and shot them with a pistol. Police said he had shot Rida several times and she had died before she could be treated.
Shamim Bibi, Rida’s mother, and Kainat, Rida’s sister, had also been hit. They were taken to Allied Hospital for treatment. Doctors there said they would survive.
The police spokesperson said they had registered an FIR and were investigating the incident.
