According to the woman, Bushra, her sister, 25-year-old Huma Maheen, went to their brother's house upon being invited to a birthday party on May 19.
She maintained that her brothers tied Maheen up with ropes there and brutally assaulted her, and later took her to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre for treatment without informing anyone.
Bushra further narrated that her brothers did not permit Maheen's husband to meet her at the hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries during treatment this week.
Moreover, she claimed, her five brothers had also killed their parents, while two of them, Zeeshan and Adnan, had sold their father's land and kept the money for themselves.
According to Landhi SHO Gulzar Tunio, Maheen's body has been shifted to the Chhipa morgue and no one has received it yet.
He added that the initial medical report has revealed that the cause of Maheen's death was trauma, but the actual cause of death would only be ascertained after post-mortem. Tunio stated that a case would be registered after this.
