Man, woman shot dead ‘for honour’

SUKKUR: A man shot dead his daughter-in-law and her acquaintance upon seeing them together in Sheedi Mohallah of Jacobabad on Sunday night.

The man, Mohammad Hayat Langho, surrendered himself to police claiming that he shot dead his son’s wife and her friend upon seeing them in an objectionable position.

He led the police to his house where police took the two bodies in custody.

The victims were identified as Gul Bano, 40, wife of Mohammad Ali Langho, and Sikandar Ali, 39, son of Khabbar Khan Dashti.

A post-mortem examination of the two bodies was performed at the Jacobabad Civil Hospital.

Sikhandar Ali’s paternal cousin Ghulam Abbas Dashti lodged a murder FIR (20/2014) at the Airport police station against Hayat Langho and his sons, Mohammad Ali, Mohammad Arif, Nabi Dad, Meharullah and Mohammad Younus. He alleged that the suspects killed Sikandar and the woman after inviting him to the house for some money transaction.
