Will Zahir Jaffer be punished or Pakistan would lose another Noor Mukaddam?

Salima Bhutto by Salima Bhutto
March 24, 2022
Reliable sources revealed that the murderer’s family is trying to bribe police and a judge to allow him to flee as police investigation reveals that Jaffer is a US citizen

No human expected to wake up to another sad news of a woman being subjected to a brutal murder on the auspicious occasion of Eid but that is exactly what Pakistanis witnessed.

As we all know Noor Muqaddam, a 27-year-old woman, was allegedly killed by Zahir Jaffar, the son of a well-known businessman in the capital city of Pakistan. The not-so-guilty man was so confident that he will skip justice as had booked a flight to the United States on the same day he did a heinous crime. Now, the enigma is will Muqaddam get justice, or justice delayed will be once again be denied?

The horrible murder of Noor Mukadam, who is the daughter of the former ambassador to South Korea, has sent shockwaves across the country. According to initial reports. She left home and was with accused Zahir Jaffar. Reportedly they were both friends since long. However, on 21st July, Jaffar not only murdered her, he brutally slit her throat with a sharp-edged weapon and beheaded her in his home at Islamabad’s Sector F-7/4.

Booked under Section 302

Zahir Jaffar was immediately arrested under Section 302 (premeditated murder) of the Pakistan Penal Code.

According to Noor’s father Shaukat Mukadam, a day earlier to the devastating incident, he had gone to Rawalpindi while his wife was out of the home. The couple, when returned in the evening, found their daughter Noor was absent from their house in Islamabad.

They found her cellphone number to be switched off and started a search for her. Sometime later, Noor called her parents to inform them that she was travelling to Lahore with some friends and would return in a day or two.

However, on Tuesday afternoon, he received a call from Zahir, son of Zakir Jaffer that his daughter Noor was not with him. At around 10 pm the same day, Mukadam was informed by the police on call that Noor had been murdered.

Police subsequently took the complainant to Zahir’s house in Sector F-7/4 where he discovered that his daughter has been brutally murdered with a sharp-edged weapon.

Will the arrested Zahir Jaffer be punished?

Zahir Jaffer belongs to son of one of the top ten leading businessmen of the country. Reliable sources revealed that the murderer’s family is trying to bribe police and a judge to allow him to flee as police investigation reveals that Jaffer is a US citizen and was booked to leave Islamabad for America on a flight on the same day he murdered the woman. 

When police arrested Zahir, he was sound and in his senses. Police did focus on his mental frame of mind but initial findings indicated the suspect was completely aware of his actions when he allegedly committed the murder. Regarding his mental health history, the SSP said the police investigation “has nothing to do with that” and was being pursued from the angle of whether the act was justified or not — “which it completely wasn’t”.

Will Pakistan witness another ‘Justice delayed justice denied’ case?

Noor’s murder has sparked fresh debate about the safety of women in Pakistan. This is reportedly the third brutal attack on a woman in the country in the past few days. The search still remains the same, just like other cases, will this case also be vanished after few hashtags and loud chants or will justice be served?
