QUETTA:

Quetta police on February 25 claimed completing 90 percent investigation in the honour killing of the 15-year-old American girl Hira.

According to Senior Superintendent Police Serious Crime Wing Zohaib Mohsin, they are trying to finish the investigation as soon as possible.

Police have already recovered the weapon used in the heinous crime and submitted a challan to the court.

However, investigators are still waiting to record statements of Hira’s father and sisters to gain a clear understanding of what led to the murder.

“Did something happen in America, or were the father and uncle’s minds changed in Quetta?” Mohsin said, indicating that multiple angles are being examined.
