Man kills wife, three daughters

A man slaughtered his wife and three young daughters over a domestic dispute in Muridke on Tuesday.

The man, who has been identified as Shaukat, first gave intoxicated syrup to his wife and daughters. Once they lost consciousness, he murdered them.

However, he did not kill his youngest son and took him away when he fled.

Shaukat is said to have committed this act because he was not happy with the marriage of his 11-year-old daughter Samina.
