Mukhtar Kazim, in a complaint to the police, has said his wife Samia Shahid was murdered during a visit to her family in a village in Punjab on July 20.Samia’s father has denied the charge and claimed his daughter died of natural causes. At an emotional press conference last week, Kazim presented a copy of a post-mortem report which said the 28-year-old woman had marks on her neck, suggesting she had been strangled. Police said the latest forensic report had confirmed Samia died an unnatural death. “The forensic report has been received by a three-member special investigation committee set up by Punjab chief minister and according to it Samia Shahid’s death occurred due to asphyxia,” Abubakar Khuda Bakhsh, the chief investigator, told AFP. Kazim has described his wife’s death as an “ho**ur killing”.Kazim and Samia, who was a dual British-Pakistani citizen, had been married for two years and were living in Dubai, police have said, adding that it was Samia’s second marriage. Kazim has said his wife converted to Shia Islam, his own sect, before their wedding, a move which had irked her parents. Samia’s first husband Mohammad Shakeel, her parents and a cousin are being investigated, police have said. “Ho**ur killings” came under the international spotlight last month with the killing of Qandeel Baloch, a polarising social media star.Her brother has confessed to the murder, saying his sister’s behaviour had been “intolerable”. The victims of “ho**ur” killings are overwhelmingly women, with hundreds killed each year.The crimes have long polarised Pakistan, with progressives calling for tough legislation against them and conservatives resisting.But the murder of Qandeel Baloch appears to have spurred politicians to take action.The law minister has an**unced that bills aimed at tackling loopholes that ease “ho**ur” killings would soon go before parliament. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Samia Shahid was suffocated: forensic report || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
