As per the first information report (FIR), there were differences between Sughran Bibi and her husband Younas over the divorce of their son. Due to the conflict, she was prohibited by husband from seeing her parents.

Sughran’s niece was divorced by her son, which had created differences among the families.

Her brother, Jaffar Hussain, had got registered a case against Younas and son Ghulam Mustafa.
