SIALKOT, May 24: An infuriated boy shot dead his three sisters on suspicion of having illicit relations at Nidokey-Sialkot village early Tuesday morning. Reports said landlord Arshad Husain’s three daughters — Samia (22), Aneeqa (11) and Rukhsana Fatima (9) — were sleeping in two rooms at their home when their brother, Arshad Waseem, shot at them turn by turn. They died instantly.

Later, Arshad went to the Sialkot Saddar police station and surrendered himself for arrest. He told the police that his elder sister, Samia, had developed illicit relations with a villager.

He claimed that he wanted to kill Saima, but targeted the other two by mistake.

The triple murder incident created a panic among the people of the area. The Sialkot Saddar police have registered a case and sent the suspect behind bars.
