Azmat was driving when she was approached by three assailants.
Azmat Ara, a British-Pakistani woman, was shot and killed near Defence Chowk, Rawalpindi, just days after reclaiming her illegally occupied property.
Her murder has sent shockwaves through the community.
According to the FIR, she was shot by individuals who had illegally occupied her property.
This tragic event happened in the district of Morgah Police Station, leading to widespread outrage and calls for justice.
Waseem Hussain, Azmat’s son, filed a police complaint, leading to a murder case being registered against the perpetrators.
Waseem reported the details to the police, explaining the complex family dynamics that led to the tragic outcome.
Azmat and her husband were British-Pakistani and in 2018, she purchased a house in a private society.
However, family tensions escalated after Waseem married Rahim Khan’s daughter in 2019, who had familial ties with Azmat.
In 2021, Rahim Khan, along with his brother Ibrahim Khan and son Kamal Ahmed, unlawfully occupied Azmat’s property.
After Waseem divorced his wife, a lawsuit was filed by Azmat to reclaim her home, which resulted in a court ruling in her favour.
After a prolonged legal battle lasting three years, Azmat successfully fought to regain her home from those who had unlawfully occupied it.
Just three days before her tragic death, she finally won back her property.
The court ordered the removal of the illegal occupants, and Azmat successfully regained possession of her house.
On the day of her murder, Azmat was driving when she was approached by three assailants.
These were Rahim Khan, Ibrahim Khan, and Kamal Ahmed – on a motorcycle. In a brutal act, Kamal Ahmed shot her dead.
The police responded quickly to the scene, securing the vehicle and beginning an investigation immediately.
Authorities are investigating the incident and reviewing CCTV footage to track down the suspects.
Azmat Ara’s life was marked by her dedication to social causes, making her untimely death a profound loss for those she sought to help.
According to multiple sources, Azmat was a dedicated supporter of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party.
She had returned to Pakistan with the intention of doing social work.
Over the years, she focused on impactful projects, such as building wells and assisting impoverished communities.
Her commitment extended to helping flood victims and responding to calls for aid from figures like Imran Riaz Khan.
