In a tragic incident, a woman named Shumaila Bibi was tortured to death by her husband and in-laws in Bahawalnagar for giving birth to a daughter.
The incident took place in Khadam Abad Colony, within the Khadam area of Bahawalnagar.
According to police, the victim, Shumaila Bibi, and her husband, Nauman, had married of their own choice.
The couple had two sons and four daughters. However, Shumaila faced ongoing abuse from her husband and in-laws due to their dissatisfaction with her not bringing a dowry and for giving birth to daughters, which they considered unacceptable.
The abuse eventually led to her death, after which her brother filed a complaint with the police. A case was registered against Nauman at the City B Division Police Station, and he was subsequently arrested. Shumaila’s body was sent to the District Hospital for a post-mortem examination to determine the exact cause of death.
