ZAFARWAL – In a tragic incident, a man, Akram alias Guddu, killed his ex-wife, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and her 10-year-old child in Khushhal Garh village, Zafarwal, after failing to reconcile with his former spouse.
The motive behind the killings stemmed from Akram’s frustration over the forced annulment of his love marriage and ongoing legal disputes with his in-laws. According to reports, he went to his former in-laws’ house, where he opened fire indiscriminately, resulting in the immediate deaths of his ex-mother-in-law, ex-wife, sister-in-law, and her child. His former father-in-law and brother-in-law were also injured in the attack.
