Two Pakistani brothers murdered their mother and two step-sisters in Lahore on Tuesday, in the latest incident of honour killing in the country.
According to Dawn, the brothers Shehzad and Asif used a dagger to kill their mother Sughra Bibi, and step sisters Muqaddas and Amna in the name of honour, as they believed that the women had bad character and indulged in wrong activities, the investigation officer said.
The two brothers have pleaded guilty to the crime and have been arrested, the officer added.
Bodies of the woman and her daughters have been sent to the mortuary for postmortem investigation, the report said.
