MULTAN: A man shot dead his two sisters on Monday. Muhammad Azhar’s father Pehelwaan Imran said he had been arguing with his sisters, Saira, 18, Saima, 16, and Shumaila, 14, over their conduct. He said Azhar would demand they wear veils. On the day of the incident, Imran said Azhar had another quarrel with his sisters and beat them. Then he left the house and returned with another man and a gun. He shot Saira and Shumaila, but Saima ran out of the house at the sound of gunfire and some neighbours let her hide in their house. Azhar and his companion then fled from the scene. The bodies were taken to Karbeerwala tehsil headquarters hospital. Nawan Sheher SHO Rana Farooq told The Express Tribune that the Saima had been given police protection as her family feared for her life. He said a team had been constituted to arrest the culprits.

Killing a 14 year child for not wearing a veil.And the honorable brother has absconded after killings.Off course,it is never a man that is killed for honor.Only honor to these people is killing women.
