Widow’s house demolished

SUKKUR, July 20: Armed people demolished the house of Wadhul Jhandeer, a widow, and took away household items in Pano Akil late on Saturday night.

Local people said that one year ago Mehram Jhandeer, son of Wadhul, had married Benazeer Jhandeer in the court, which sparked enmity between the two families.

Relatives of Benazeer Jhandeer, through a jirga had declared the couple as karo- kari and had announced to kill them.

On Saturday night they raided her house, demolished it and escaped with household items.
