LAHORE, Apr 6: Samia Sarwar, 29, mother of two boys aged 4 and 8, was shot dead today in lawyer Hina Jillani’s office by a bearded man accompanying her mother and uncle. The bearded man shot Saima in the head, killing her instantly. Married in 1989, Samia had left her abusive husband four years ago and had been living at her parents’ house in Peshawar, but they, along with her brother and uncle, had threatened to kill her if she filed for divorce. Defying them, she ran away to Lahore and took refuge at Dastak, the half-way house for women run by AGHS Legal Aid Cell since March 26th. Her dissolution of marriage case was due to be filed any day.
