FAISALABAD: A man shot and killed his wife four days after their marriage on Friday evening.

According to police officials, Dodgar Basti resident Muhammad Salam told police officials that his daughter Shumaila, 20, married Muhammad Javed four days ago and was shot because she wished to visit her parents after the wedding.

Police officials said that Javed was already married and had three children and that the couple fought over his prior marriage.
