The tragic murder of 17-year-old TikToker Sana Yousaf has sparked national outrage, not only over the brutal crime but also due to how authorities are handling the accused. Sana was reportedly killed by Umer Hayat in Faisalabad after she rejected his persistent advances.
Umer was arrested using CCTV footage and has confessed to the crime, yet during his recent court appearance, his face was completely covered. This move has triggered widespread backlash, with many questioning why the identity of a confessed killer is being hidden.

Netizens argue that while victims like Sana have their lives dissected online, their killers are given protection and anonymity. The demand for transparency continues to grow, with calls for the justice system to stop shielding criminals.
