ABBOTTABAD: A woman committed suicide over unknown reasons in Abbottabad on Sunday. Farooq Khan told the Nawan Shehr police that he received a phone call from his relative and was informed that his 37-year-old niece, Ghazala Bibi, had hanged herself with a ceiling fan. When he reached Bibi’s house, she was still alive. Khan then took her to Ayub Medical Complex, but she died of her neck injury. The complainant said Bibi had been married to Muhammad Abid for 13 years, and the couple had four children. Abid, he said, was working in Dubai, while Bibi was living with her children in Abbottabad.
