On September 26, 2022, a court in Islamabad had extended the physical remand of Shahnawaz Amir and his father Ayaz Amir for three days and one day, respectively.  Islamabad police had arrested Shahnawaz for allegedly murdering his Canadian national wife Sara over a ‘family issue’ with the help of dumbbells, a day after she arrived in Pakistan from Dubai.   Sara, 37, was the third wife of the alleged murderer. The incident took place at a farmhouse located in the capital’s Shahzad Town suburb where the suspect lived along with his mother.
