Newlywed woman allegedly killed by husband in New Karachi
A 21-year-old woman was allegedly murdered by her husband roughly six weeks after their love marriage, police said on Wednesday. The victim, identified as Sawera, was found dead at her husband’s house, and her family has accused the husband, Sarfaraz, of involvement in her death.
The victim’s mother, Zeenat, claimed that Sarfaraz had already been married before wedding Sawera, making this his second marriage. She alleged that other people were also involved and called for a thorough investigation.
Zeenat appealed to Sindh Inspector General of Police Javed Alam Odho to protect her family and bring those responsible to justice. She also expressed concern that police were not pursuing the case properly.
Zeenat said Sawera was an orphan whom she had raised despite severe financial and personal hardship. Police said the investigation was ongoing and further action would be taken once the DNA report was received.
