FAISALABAD, July 19: A man late Thursday night killed his wife and a suckling over a domestic issue in B Block, People’s Colony.

Javed reportedly took his wife Rashida and two children — Hannan (suckling) and Jabeen (3) — in his car.

After some distance from his residence, he made Rashida, with the suckling in her lap, dismount and then ran them over.

To give it a colour of an accident, he hit his car against a nearby wall of the Kohinoor Mills on the Jaranwala Road.

He also threw Jabeen from the moving car before smashing it into the wall. She sustained injuries and was admitted to a local hospital.

Police have arrested the accused and registered a murder case against him.
