MULTAN – A tragic incident unfolded in Basti Malook, Multan, where a man killed his daughter and her three young children over a land dispute. Police reported that the three children were all under three years old, with the youngest being just two months.
Initial investigations reveal the motive behind this horrific act was a conflict involving property and family tensions. The suspect, a local resident, acted in anger over ongoing disagreements related to land ownership and family relationships.
Authorities responded quickly, registering a case against the accused and arresting him soon after the crime. Police confirmed that the investigation is ongoing, and they are working to ensure justice for the victims.
Land disputes in Pakistan frequently cause serious problems, especially for women. Although women have legal rights to inheritance under Islamic and constitutional laws, many are denied their rightful share.
This is particularly common in rural areas, where cultural and patriarchal norms dominate.
Women who claim their inheritance often face harsh reactions from male family members. These can include emotional abuse, threats, and even physical violence. Many women suffer disownment or intimidation to stop them from pursuing their legal rights.
This tragic case highlights the dangers linked to land disputes and the urgent need for better protection of women’s inheritance rights. Authorities and communities must work together to address these issues and prevent such violence in the future.
