Three including two women killed for honour

LAHORE: The second incident of honour killing of 2004 on Saturday claimed three more lives including two women in the Manga Mandi police precincts.
Muhammad Labha from Sandha had allegedly developed illicit relations with Shakura Bibi, wife of Ishfaq, a landlord of Loharanwala Khu in Sunder.
Shakura's husband became furious on seeing his wife with another man in a compromising position in a room in the neighbourhood. He picked up his rifle and opened fire on them, as a result both died instantly. After hearing the gunshots, neighbour Kubra tried to overpower Mr Ishfaq but he also shot her dead and escaped.
The bodies were removed to the city mortuary for an autopsy. Police has registered a case on the complaint of Kubra's brother Mushtaq.
The first honour killing took place in the Burki police precincts in which a youth stabbed his elder sister Shabana, 17, suspecting that she had developed illicit relations with a neighbour.
Muhammad Imran of Village Tera stabbed her to death after exchanging hot words with her."
