NAUDERO: A man and a woman were killed in the name of honour in the Gareebabad area on Sunday morning. Mehar Ali Mirbahar shot Ghulam Hyder Mirbahar’s 23-year- old wife, Abida and Maula Bux Mirbahar’s 20-year-old son, Khan. He claimed that he found them in a ‘compromising position’ at her house. Abida and Ghulam Hyder had four children. The Naudero SHO, Imamuddin Chandio, said that the man’s body was taken to the Rural Health Centre (RHC). As there are no lady doctors at the RHC, Abida was taken to the Taluka Hospital, Ratodero, he added. The accused, Mehar, has been arrested but a case has not been filed yet.
