DEMAND: An unmarried woman, Ms Tabassum Hayat, has accused her brothers of usurping her late father’s property.
She said that they issued her death threats when she demanded her share in the property.
Speaking at a press conference at the press club on Monday, she said that her father had left many shops and running business in Shahi Bazar, Tando Adam which were taken over by her brothers, Shoukat Hayat and Faisal Hayat.
When she demanded her share, the brothers subjected her to torture and forced her to leave.
She said that she had moved to her late grandfather’s house where she was living alone but the brothers were still issuing her death threats.
She said that she sought police help but Tando Adam police refused to register an FIR against her brothers who had close rapport with a local MPA.
Ms Tabassum said that being an unmarried woman it was almost impossible for her to keep up her case.
She made an appeal to higher authorities to take notice of her brothers’ excesses and give her justice.
Afraid for her life she said that in case she was murdered, police should register an FIR against her brothers.
