GUJRANWALA: A man, resident of Gujranwala’s Qila Dedar Singh, killed his paternal grandmother and sister at their house Sunday morning allegedly over a domestic dispute.
Police said that the suspect, identified as Sufyan, opened fire on his two sisters after a heated argument with them. His paternal grandmother intervened to resolve the matter but he killed her as well.
The bodies of the deceased and the injured sister were shifted to a nearby hospital for postmortem and medical treatment respectively. The deceased have been identified as Basheera Bibi and Iqra.
Eyewitnesses claimed that the case was of ‘honour killing’. However, new reports have emerged which state that the brother and sisters were involved in a domestic dispute as the brother did not get ‘garam khana (hot food)’.
