Bano Brohi of Sanghar district, was shot dead by her brothers and uncle. A young man, Asif Brohi, the alleged lover of Bano was also killed.
The father of the girl, professed that his sons and brother had killed her in the name of honour. The police reached the crime scene and shifted the dead bodies to the local hospital. This is the second case of honour killing in the Sanghar district. Last month, Moosa Khyber from Khipro village, axed his wife and eighteen year-old daughter, to death. Relatives of Moosa Khyber, who is now on the run, claim that it was an honour killing. Khyber, was apparently enraged that a male relative came to visit his wife and daughter, alone. He also attempted to kill the male relative, who managed to escape. There has been no FIR registered.
