**TT Singh “Honour Killing”: Father and Brother Sentenced to Death**

A local court in Toba Tek Singh has handed down a death sentence to a father and brother convicted in the “honour killing” of 22-year-old Maria.

The murder took place on March 30th of last year, when Maria was killed by her father, Abdul Sattar, and brother, Muhammad Faisal. The family then attempted to cover up the crime by quietly burying the body.

The court, presided over by the additional sessions judge, found both Abdul Sattar and Muhammad Faisal guilty, sentencing them to death. In addition to the death penalty, each convict was also fined one million rupees.

However, the court acquitted another brother, Muhammad Shehbaz, who had filmed the murder. Maria’s sister-in-law, Sumaira, was also acquitted.

Initial police investigations suggested Shehbaz’s involvement, with DPO Ibadat Nisar stating that he had transported the body and performed final rituals. DNA samples were taken from a total of four suspects. Shehbaz and Sumera were later to be included in the murder case.
