Karachi authorities have discovered the body of a 30-year-old woman who went missing with her two young daughters three days ago. The woman's body was found floating in a water main near Dumba Goth on Friday, according to Malir Cantonment police SHO Agha Abdul Rasheed. It appears the woman drowned in the water line before it was carried to its current location by the strong current.
Her daughters, aged four and one-and-a-half years, remain missing. A missing person's report was filed at the Memon Goth police station, leading to the current investigation. Police suspect that Qadir Bux, the woman's husband, may have been involved in her disappearance. They detained him for interrogation following the post-mortem examination report.
Meanwhile, in Clifton's Neelam Colony, a tragic incident unfolded when a man named Tanveer Ashraf, reportedly suffering from financial difficulties, shot and killed his six-year-old son before taking his own life. The incident occurred around 5pm on Friday, and police found both victims at the scene.
