A day of wedding celebration turned into one of mourning when a brother allegedly killed his sister by feeding her poisonous pills in Kharian, police said on Monday. The incident occurred in the Ganbaja area under the jurisdiction of the Saddar Kharian police station. Sources reveal that Mukhtar Ali, who had recently returned from Greece, fed his sister Mubina pills typically used to protect wheat from rats. The police have registered a case against Mukhtar Ali based on a complaint from the mother of the deceased. According to the plaintiff, the family had attended the Nikah ceremony of their second son Qasim Ali leaving Mubina and Mukhtar at home.
