LAHORE: The bodies of three deceased Pakistanis, who were ‘mysteriously’ murdered in South Africa, were transported to Pakistan on Friday morning, a private news channel reported.

Reported, the victims were identified as two siblings Riaz and Asif and their cousin Bilal, who were living in South Africa for the past six years.

According to their relatives, the decedents were residents of Mananwala, a city in Sheikhupura District of Punjab.

Their relatives alleged that decedents’ bodies were burnt after being murdered on the eve of July 2.
