Earlier this week, the police booked a government officer who had killed his wife and minor daughter in the Naseerabad area last week. The grade 17 federal government employee, Mujahid Ali, confessed to strangulating his wife and 18-month old daughter during the investigation. A senior police official told that Mujahid Ali probably killed his wife and daughter so that he could marry another woman.
