Lahore– In a heart-wrenching incident that has sent shockwaves throughout the community, Asim Jamil, the son of renowned Islamic scholar Maulana Tariq Jamil, met an untimely demise in Mian Channu on Sunday. The incident unfolded in the Tulamba Tehsil of the Khanewal district, leaving many questions unanswered.
Initial reports indicate that Asim’s lifeless body has been transferred to Tulamba Hospital, and legal proceedings are currently underway to shed light on the circumstances surrounding this tragedy.
The news of Asim Jamil’s passing was officially confirmed via Maulana Tariq Jamil’s Twitter account, leaving the countless followers of the esteemed scholar in a state of bewilderment.
According to the Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) in Mian Channu, Asim Jamil reportedly took his own life by shooting himself in the chest. However, crucial details regarding the incident, such as the location, the presence of any witnesses, and the events leading up to this tragedy, remain undisclosed.
In a perplexing contrast, Maulana Tariq Jamil’s statement on X, formerly known as Twitter, makes no mention of Asim’s death by suicide. This has generated significant intrigue among the public, as no supporting evidence has surfaced to corroborate the police’s assertion that Asim Jamil took his own life in such a manner.
Despite the ambiguity surrounding the circumstances, Punjab Police Inspector General Dr. Usman Anwer has taken cognizance of the incident and requested a comprehensive report from the Regional Police Officer (RPO) in Multan. As the community eagerly awaits a thorough investigation to reveal the truth behind Asim Jamil’s sudden and tragic demise.
Yousaf Jamil, the son of Maulana Tariq Jamil, has taken the initiative to address the situation by releasing a heartfelt video message concerning the loss of his brother, Asim Jamil. In the video, Yousaf shared that Asim had been receiving treatment for mental health concerns and tragically took his own life using a firearm belonging to one of their security personnel. This revelation adds a poignant layer of complexity to the unfolding narrative, leaving many grappling with the sorrow and questions surrounding Asim Jamil’s passing.
