Honour killing: Pakistani male shots dead 21-year-old sister for dancing and modelling

LAHORE: In another presumed case of honour killing in Pakistan, a 21-year-old lady has allegedly been shot dead by her sibling for pursuing dancing and modelling as a profession in Punjab province.
Sidra, a native of Renala Khurd Okara, 130 km from provincial capital Lahore, was designing for a local clothes brand name and danced in theatres of Faisalabad city versus the wishes of her family, according to authorities.
Sidra’s moms and dads required her to quit her profession, calling it “against household custom” however Sidra demanded continuing.
Police stated Sidra had actually gotten home from Faisalabad to celebrate Eid with her household recently.
On Thursday, her parents and bro Hamza had an argument with her over the issue of decency in profession and beat her for insisting to stick to dancing.
Later on in the day Hamza opened fire on Sidra, eliminating her on the spot, officials said.
A murder case was registered versus the suspect. Cops declare to have detained Hamza who admitted to the crime.
Policeman Fraz Hamid said Hamza got irritated at Sidra when he saw her dance performance on his cellphone forwarded to him by a relative.
He stated Hamza told authorities that in a fit of rage he shot his sister dead.
In February this year, a 19-year-old female dancer Ayesha was shot dead in Faisalabad by her ex-husband.
Cases of honour killing are frighteningly routine in Pakistan, specifically in locations near the tribal regions in the north and west.
