On August 20, a case was registered in Rawalpindi following the discovery of a 45-year-old woman's body, bound and in critical condition, at an apartment. The first information report (FIR) was filed under Sections 302 and 34 of the Pakistan Penal Code by the deceased's brother, Fahad, on complaint of the deceased’s father-in-law.
Fahad recounted that his sister, Hina, married her husband in November 2025, and upon receiving a call from her father-in-law about an emergency, Fahad and other family members rushed to the residence. Upon arrival, they found Hina's lifeless body in the bathroom, bound with a cloth over her mouth and a wire around her neck connected to the shower.
Blood was evident on her mouth and the bathroom floor, raising suspicions of a poisoned substance. Fahad alleged that Hina was murdered by her husband, her father, and their servant, and suffered severe torture and abuse.
