A university professor in Islamabad has allegedly killed his wife in Rawalpindi with the help of a domestic worker and his father, according to police and the victim’s family.
The incident took place in the Lalkurti area of Rawalpindi’s Civil Lines police station, where the woman’s body was recovered from a bathroom at her home.
Police said the victim, identified as Hina, had been married to the accused for around nine months. The husband and domestic worker have been arrested, while the victim’s family has also demanded the arrest of her father-in-law, who has been named in the case.
According to the complainant, the victim’s hands were tied behind her back and a cloth had been placed over her mouth. He said he rushed to the house after receiving a call from his sister’s father-in-law and found her body in the bathroom.
The family alleged that the suspects attempted to portray the killing as suicide. Hina’s brother also claimed that her husband had previously subjected her to abuse and that the marriage was his second. His first wife had reportedly divorced him.
Police said Hina’s post-mortem examination has been completed and its report is awaited. Investigators have collected evidence from the scene and are examining all aspects of the case.
The victim’s family has urged Punjab Police to arrest all suspects and ensure justice.
