In a significant development in the Degari double murder case, police have obtained DNA samples from Gul Jan, the mother of the slain woman, Bano Bibi. The sampling was conducted on the request of the Serious Crime Investigation Wing.
Following the conclusion of her two-day police remand, Gul Jan was produced before an Anti-Terrorism Court, which ordered her to be sent to jail.
According to police officials, Gul Jan was taken into custody after a video surfaced in which she appeared to justify her daughter's killing as a form of "punishment" under Balochi tribal customs. The statement drew widespread public condemnation and is being treated as a key element in the investigation.
The case drew national attention after a man and a woman were brutally murdered in the Didi area of Degari. A graphic video of the killings went viral on social media, triggering outrage and demands for swift justice from civil society, journalists, and the legal fraternity.
The Balochistan High Court took suo motu notice of the incident and directed senior police officials to submit a detailed report. Investigations remain ongoing.
