This shocking crime took place in the city of Dashka, Pakistan, with the indictment stating that the mother-in-law in question, having several accomplices from her family circle, brutally murdered and dismembered her unfortunate daughter-in-law who was 7 months pregnant, because she thought she used witchcraft to… wrap her son.

The tangle of horror began to unravel last week when she was reported missing, shortly before the first human remains were discovered in various parts of the city.
The timeline of the crime
According to a related publication, the mother-in-law of the unfortunate girl confessed almost immediately that she is the one who took her life. As reported by the local police, the accused having 4 accomplices by her side, after stunning the pregnant woman, suffocated her by putting a pillow over her face. After making sure that she was dead, they cut her into pieces and then after placing them in a bag they carried them and scattered them in different parts of the city of Daska.

It is noted that the couple already have a three-year-old son, while the unfortunate woman had returned to Pakistan just two weeks ago, as until then they were all living together in Saudi Arabia due to the husband’s work.
Her father was looking for her
In fact, the murdered woman’s father testified that his son-in-law’s family was pathologically jealous of his daughter, because she lived abroad and at a better level than them.
He said he became particularly concerned because he had not heard from his daughter since November 10, when he discovered her cell phone had been switched off.
Worried about what was happening to his daughter, he traveled to Pakistan and met with his in-laws, who told him that his daughter had left their home, taking money and jewelry with her.
This, however, did not reassure him, so he addressed the authorities stating her disappearance.
After the arrest of the mother-in-law, the Police reported that four more people were arrested as her accomplices: They are her daughter, her grandson and two distant relatives.
