KARACHI: One of the suspects in the murder of banker Faisal Nabi revealed on Monday that the deceased tried to rape her before he was shot by M*, the woman who initially complained to the police.
These details surfaced in the application that A* submitted before a judicial magistrate in district South, Zeeshan Manzoor, who was hearing the case as a link judge on Monday. Requesting the court to record her confession, she said she wanted to confess the truth in person.
A was one of the prime suspects following filmmaker, Mansoor Mujahid, who she claimed was not even present at the time of the murder. The two were accused of killing 33-year-old Faisal Nabi on June 19 at A’s apartment on Zamzama after the group - which included another woman, M - consumed ecstasy pills.
M was the one who complained to the police, which arrested Mujahid and A, and recovered the body in Clifton Block-2. Later, the police arrested M because she kept changing her statements before the police.
In her application, A stated that Faisal and M came to her flat between 1:30am and 2am on June 20. “Faisal had sex with M after consuming alcohol and ecstasy pills,” she said, claiming that Faisal tried to rape her so M shot him. Mansoor was not present at the scene, she added. “It was just myself, M and Faisal.”
One of the lawyers in the case told The Express Tribune, on the condition of anonymity, that A submitted the application in court herself after the women prison superintendent refused to take it to court. “The application is in her handwriting,” he said.
Show-cause for IO
Meanwhile, the officer investigating the case, Irshad Karim, was issued a show-cause notice after he failed to submit a charge sheet in the case. The court directed Karim to submit an interim charge sheet on July 9. The judge directed the process server of the Clifton police station to make sure that Karim submits an interim charge sheet and extended the jail custody of the suspects till July 13.

Ecstasy Pills and Rape don't really go together. Especially if you've managed to already have sex once whilst on the high. I think Mansoor killed Faisal because Anab ordered him too. Those two together remind me of Micky and Mallory from Natural Born Killers. M - the other girl, crazy and mixed up as she may be, story probably keeps changing because the trauma of coming to terms with witnessing such a ghastly and gruesome act is mixing her up. If she is already a fragile sense of perception, then that is to be expected. Mansoor and Anab are no doubt taking advantage of this.
Fasial had sex with the girl whose name begins with 'M', he then tried to rape the girl whose name begins with 'A', which is why 'M' shot him. The way they've written it is quite confusing. @bilal:
Where were these facts before? It seems obvious they are making them up in a desperate attempt.
Besides, if he tried to rape M, why would she report the people who saved her life? Doesn't make sense.
He was trying to rape the other woman, 'A', so 'M' who he already had sex with sbot him. They need better writers. Perhaps using 'Suspect A' or 'Victim A' would serve better? @bilal:
why should always the killers be culprints ( villians ) and the ones killed be innocent . Perhaps this story is true. The killed one might have tried hanky panky with the girl.
So Bollywood movies and banking are to be blamed! HAHAHAHAH.. No personal accountabiltiy.
Oh and I love the fact that these "Truths" are being told by people who can not even comprehend the article written.
What is next, the Jews are to blame for what A* and M did?
I feel like Joey from Friends...can't keep track of who A is and M is and B and C and D
yeah thats fine then why Mansoor claimed he shot him?
I can see Mr Bhatt making a movie out of this drama. But on a serious note is this the naya Pakistan we were dreaming of?
Readers investigation continues...
So as Khurram said, it seems likely that A shot the murdered, now why Mansoor Mujahid (the man in pic) claimed this killing?
@Meena q; This whole episode seems to be BOLLYWOOD inspired!!!!!!!
What is this victim trying to rape M while M shot him and crap? who wrote this copy?
Raping attempt just after having sex with another women is questionable. The guy who confessed killing is now regarded as absent by A*. Looks like a plot to save powerful producer.
There is a reason banking is forbidden.. it is exploitative in nature...
The stressful job that being a banker involves, makes one prone to alcoholism, adultery, and the paraphernalia. Sadly myself being the victim of this under bonded labor.
well someone got killed and someone did kill. Now to mix the things up, sex, drugs and rape, put all the erotic drama ingredients in.
The Plot thickens.....
bill , the statment is from A* she quoted that Faisal had sex with M after consuming Alchoal and Escatsy pills, after this she is claiming that Faisal tried to raper her ( A) too and M shot Faisal as after having Sex with M he was about to rape A. now do u understand??
This is the result of watching too many trashy Indian movies!!!
@bilal: “Faisal had sex with M after consuming alcohol and ecstasy pills,” she said, claiming that Faisal tried to rape her so M shot him” when they already had sex why was he trying to rape her?
Thats what i am thinking as well, something wrong with ET reporters these days ??
“Faisal had sex with M after consuming alcohol and ecstasy pills,” she said, claiming that Faisal tried to rape her so M shot him" when they already had sex why was he trying to rape her?
