A young man was killed in the name of honour while a woman managed to escape and save her life in Peshawar. Officials at Inqilab Police Station said Sarbaz Khan filed a report in which he alleged that Ihsanullah and Kamran, who belong to Afghanistan, have killed his son Tariq in the name of honour. He said the assailants escaped after killing his son.
Police said the alleged killers have been arrested after filing of the report. They said it was revealed after initial investigation that Ihsanullah's wife had gone to her parents' home in Panj Khatta area. When Ihsanullah went to the house of his in-laws to bring back his life, he saw her in compromising position with her alleged paramour, Tariq. Police said the enraged Ihsanullah opened fire due to which Tariq died on the spot. However, Ihsanullah's wife managed to save her life and escaped unhurt.
The body of Tariq was handed over to his family after post mortem. A case of the incident has been filed and the accused Ihsanullah has been arrested. Further investigation into the case is underway. In a separate incident in Peshawar, a hand grenade was thrown on the showroom of a car dealer on the Ring Road on Saturday night.
