ABBOTTABAD: Muhammad Ilyas allegedly killed his wife on Wednesday after she objected over him marrying another woman, said the police on Thursday.

Javed from Bagh village told the police his sister Amina was married to Ilyas for roughly 10 years and the couple had three children.

On Wednesday, Amina was having dinner with her children when Ilyas shot her after a heated argument. She was rushed to the hospital where she died due to excessive bleeding.
