Police claim completing probe into anchorperson’s killing in Rawalpindi

RAWALPINDI: A senior police officer has clarified that the decision to withdraw the murder case against Muhammad Ahsan, Rabia Ahsan's husband, is solely up to the trial court, not influenced by the police. The officer spoke to Dawn anonymously, responding to claims that Ahsan's brother withdrew the case, stating it was an accidental shooting rather than a deliberate killing.

According to police reports, Rabia sustained a gunshot wound below the neck, found on the floor of her bedroom. The weapon used belonged to Ahsan and was unlicensed, as he could not produce a license. Police have completed their investigation, arrested the accused, and recovered the weapon. The trial court will now decide on the withdrawal of the case if the complainant requests it.
