A Pakistani man has shot dead his sister and her daughter after his sibling got married for a fourth time following three divorces, in the latest case of honour killing in the country.
Bushra Bibi, 35, from lahore, had contracted a fourth marriage with a man of her own choice, which angered her brother, police said.
Her 16-year-old daughter who was from Bushra’s first husband, lived with her grandmother. Yesterday, when she came to meet her mother, the accused Mohammad Shahzad along with two unidentified accomplices, stormed into their house and shot them dead, The Express Tribune reported. According to police, Shahzad was unhappy over her sister’ fourth marriage and also did not want his niece to visit her stepfather’ house to meet her mother because he feared she would involve her in prostitution.
