The same family’s six members were found deceased in Muzdalfa Town, Chakwal. After Muhammad Shafqat Salim called in a distress call, officials found the horrifying finding that started the episode that has left the neighbourhood in shock.

Shafqat reportedly told investigators he had killed his wife and kids over the 15 helpline. The victims have been named as Shafqat Salim’s wife, who is believed to be between 50 and 55 years old, as well as his two daughters, who are 14 and 16, and his two boys, who are 13 and 7, respectively.

Later on, it was discovered that he had also shot himself to death after murdering his family.

Retired Captain Wahid Mahmood, the District Police Officer (DPO) of Chakwal, reacted quickly to the upsetting information. He was soon joined by the station house officer (SHO) of City Police Station and the deputy superintendent of police (DSP) of Saddar Circle, who arrived with a large group and encircled the area.

The Crime Scene Unit and the Punjab Forensic Science Agency (PFSA) were among the forensic teams called to the scene after authorities roped off the area. For post-mortem tests, the victims’ bodies were sent to the District Headquarters (DHQ) Hospital.

Though investigations are still underway, the reasons for this terrible crime are yet unknown. The DPO has made it clear that the inquiry is ongoing and has declined to provide any more information at this time.

Authorities are pleading with anybody who has information that might help with the investigation to come forward as the community struggles to process the shock and sorrow caused by this unimaginable tragedy.
