SARGODHA:
A man killed his wife, her paramour and his mistress in Haroonabad.
According to police officials, Village 75-4R resident Abdul Majeed suspected his wife of having an affair with a locaI resident and shot them both with the help of his brother Abdul Rasheed on Friday.
Neighbours told police that Majeed suspected that his wife Naseem Akhtar, 45, was having an affair with Shafiq Arshad, 22, who lived in the same village. “They had been quarrelling for a while and Naseem had recently left him to stay with her parents but he brought her back,” said Naseem’s neighbour Azhra Bibi. On Friday, Majeed and his brother Rasheed shot and killed Naseem and Shafiq. Locals in the area told police officials that Majeed and Rasheed broke into Shafiq’s house and when they found Naseem there they killed both.
The next day, Majeed also killed his mistress Asma. His neighbour Altaf told police officials that Majeed was having an affair with Asma and also began to get suspicious of her. “He thought because his wife was cheating on him his mistress was also cheating on him,” Altaf told police.
