RAWALPINDI: Three sisters and their brother were killed after gunmen opened fire inside their house in Rawalpindi’s Nasir Colony today (Monday).
According to details, another woman identified as Areej Kanwal was injured in the incident and has been shifted to Rawalpindi’s Benazir Bhutto Hospital for medical treatment.
The father of the victims told the police that the shots were fired by Kanwal’s husband, Khurram. They had registered their marriage at a court without informing their parents.
“The couple, however, had been facing many problems and kept fighting quite frequently,” the victims’ father added. Kanwal left her husband after their last fight and came to her parent’s house.
“In this regard, Kanwal’s husband arrived at our home with his father and brother and opened fire at the family members,” Asif claimed. The deceased have been identified as 25-year-old Shabahat, 27-year-old Faiza, 20-year-old Hira Nausheen, and 20-year-old Ali Haider.
