Noor Alam’s cousin sister Armana, a local politician, had slapped Dilshad over a trivial dispute a few days ago. She had even threatened to frame Dilshad in a criminal case.

On Saturday night, Dilshad stormed into Noor Alam’s house, where Armana used to reside as she was a divorcee, and slit her throat.

When her parents tried to intervene, he attacked and injured them too. Later, he surrendered at police station.

The body has been sent for post-mortem and the police spokesman said that further investigations were underway.a
