A man murdered his wife on Friday.
Kot Sabzal police said the suspect, Mir Muhammad, a resident of Goth Ismail Chachar, had been married to Razia for 18 years.
On Friday, police said Muhammad strangled his wife in her sleep for suspecting she was having an illicit relationship with another man, and fled.
Police said a case had been registered against Muhammad on a complaint filed by Haji Abdul Ghaffar, a brother of the deceased.
Ghaffar told The Express Tribune that Mir Muhammad was a drug addict. He said the couple had often quarreled.
He denied that his sister had illicit relations with anyone.
Kot Sabzal station house officer said police were looking for the suspect.
“We are carrying out raids in the area to arrest the suspect…the body of the deceased has been handed over to her family,” he said.
