Mother Confesses to Killing Her Two Children in Brutal Crime
In a heart-wrenching incident, a mother identified as Komal Sheikh has been arrested for brutally killing her two children in the jurisdiction of the Airport Police Station. Authorities revealed that the suspect admitted to slitting the throats of her children with a knife, carrying out the murders in separate rooms.
The tragic event came to light when police and rescue teams responded to reports from the area. The bodies of the children were transported to a hospital for post-mortem examinations, and the alleged murder weapon was recovered from the scene.
While Komal Sheikh confessed to the crime during initial questioning, she remained silent when asked about her motive, leaving investigators searching for answers. Police have launched a thorough investigation into the case.
This incident echoes a similarly horrifying tragedy from August 2024, when a mother in Karak, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, killed her two young children before taking her own life.
According to police, the Karak incident occurred in the Mona Khel area, where a woman named Moona shot her children, Zain (2) and Rabia (4), before committing suicide. Initial findings pointed to a domestic dispute as the trigger for the crime. The bodies were sent for legal formalities, and an investigation was initiated.
Adding to the wave of disturbing cases, a separate tragedy unfolded in Shah Latif Town, Karachi. A man named Babar committed suicide after injuring two others in a shooting. Police reported that the injured, Habib Ullah and Wahid, were hospitalized while investigators recovered more than 32 bullet shells from the scene.
These incidents highlight the alarming rise in violent domestic tragedies, prompting calls for mental health interventions and societal support systems to prevent further such devastating occurrences.
