After that they burnt her face and chopped off her body into dozens of pieces before dumping it in a drain in three sacks,” police officer Omar Farooq said and added Zara was also pregnant.

The police officer, while talking to the reporters further added, “This is a case of extreme jealousy as the mother-in-law and her daughter not only killed Zara but in cold blood dismembered her body into pieces in hatred.”
Police arrested four suspects including the mother-in-law Sughran Bibi, her daughter Yasmin, her grandson Hamza and distant relative Navid. A murder case has been registered against the suspects.
