The culprits won't be able to escape punishment, he said, adding that the family of the deceased girl will get justice. The CM has also said that he will personally supervise the progress of the case.

Many took to social media to condemn the incident and demanded justice for Zainab. “Being a father I just can’t imagine the pain of parents after this. Condolences to her parents and alarming situation to society we are living in. Government should do prompt action against the culprit and give justice to Zainab,” wrote Hafeez on social media.
