RAWALPINDI:
A man killed his one-and-a-half-year-old innocent daughter by beating her in the area of Chaklala police station.
The police registered an FIR of murder against the father on the complaint of the mother of the deceased girl, Inayat Fatima. The accused managed to escape from the hospital.
The mother of the one-and-a-half-year-old deceased girl, Inayat Fatima, Asiya Kausar, filed a complaint with the police and took the stand that she had remarried with the accused husband, Hassan Iqbal, eight years ago.
The couple had four children together. Asiya reported that she earned her living by working at people’s houses. “Last evening at four o’clock, my husband called from his brother’s phone and told me that my little girl Inayat Fatima had fallen down the stairs and called me home quickly,” she explained.
“Before I reached the house, my husband had already taken my daughter to the hospital. When I got to BBH, my daughter’s body was lying on a stretcher, with blue marks on her body and ears. When I asked my husband about the girl, he ran away from the emergency room,” she said.
Their second daughter, Abirah, said that her father had landed heavy kicks and punches on Inayat Fatima.
