TOBA TEK SINGH: A man strangled his two minor daughters at Allama Iqbal Colony in Faisalabad on Saturday. D Type Colony said 28-year-old Muhammad Akmal’s wife Zainab Bibi (24) was demanding divorce from him, saying that she wanted to live in Toba along with her mother Surayya Bibi and sister Zarqa Bibi. After his arrest, the suspect told police his mother-in-law and sister-in-law were working as maids in people’s houses. He added that he was not willing to see his daughters, Noor Fatima (7) and Eiman Fatima (6), adopt the same profession after growing up. That’s why he killed them before leaving his wife. MURDER: Two young unidentified girls were killed by unidentified person(s) near the bus station of Chak 72 GB in Jaranwala tehsil of Faisalabad on Saturday. Jaranwala Saddar police said they received a call after midnight about the bodies of the girls lying by the roadside. Police found that both victims had been shot multiple times and blood was bleeding from their bodies. Both of the girls, aged about 18 and 19, had similar pink uniforms while the letters “MW” were written on their shirts. They could not be identified until the filing of this report. The bodies were shifted to Jaranwala THQ Hospital for autopsy. PROTEST: On the call of Grand Teachers Alliance, scores of female and male teachers of government schools staged a protest on the Jhang Road in Toba against the government’s decision to outsource public schools. Addressing the participants, office-bearers of different teachers’ organisations rejected the government’s plan to privatise schools, saying that the move would deprive the citizens of their constitutional right to get free education. They demanded the government withdraw its privatisation plan and fill the thousands of vacant posts of teachers in educational institutions.
