Pakistani TikTok star Ayesha Gilamana was fatally shot on August 14 in Taxila, with police investigating the incident following her father's complaint. Gilamana, 28, had a large following on the platform, and reportedly received a phone call from a man named Kashif, who allegedly told her to come outside immediately. She, along with her sister Aseema and brother Naimatullah, left the house in a car.

The brothers later learned Gilamana had been shot, and her sister suffered serious injuries. Police are now examining CCTV footage from the scene, which reportedly shows two men riding a motorcycle away after the shooting. Naimatullah, who identified Gilamana's body, said two unidentified men in their 30s opened fire from a motorcycle.

The shooting occurred near a petrol station and left Aseema seriously injured. The motive remains unclear, and the family has asked authorities to investigate alleged financial disputes and threats involving Gilamana.
