A Pakistani man in Lahore was arrested for allegedly murdering his seven-year-old son and then attempting to cover up the crime by staging a kidnapping, ARY News reported.
According to a police official, the man initially filed a missing persons report after secretly burying his son, but investigations later uncovered his involvement in the murder.
The authorities later discovered the child’s remains buried at their residence in Baghnpura, leading to the father’s confession. The motive behind this act has not been disclosed yet.
This tragic incident follows a recent crime in Sadiqabad, where a man threw acid on his wife during a domestic dispute, leaving her with severe burns, as reported by ARY News. The victim, Saira (35), suffered severe burns covering 80 per cent of her body.
Following initial treatment at a local medical facility, she was transferred to a specialised burn unit in critical condition. The victim and her father accused multiple family members, including her husband’s parents and sister-in-law, of the assault, claiming they used both acid and petrol before setting her alight.
In a separate incident in Alipur Tehsil, Muzaffargarh District, Pakistan, financial hardship led to a devastating family tragedy on April 12. Sajjad Khokhar took the lives of his wife and seven children.
According to police reports released on Thursday, the victims were identified as 40-year-old Kausar and her children: Ansa (8), Kanza (7), Ramsha (5), Shehnaz (4), Anas (3), Subhan (2), and four-month-old Manza.
