In Quetta, Pakistan, Anwar-ul-Haq, a U.S. citizen, shot and killed his teenage daughter, Hira, for making TikTok videos. The family had lived in the U.S. for 25 years before moving to Pakistan. Anwar found Hira’s content “objectionable” and initially denied responsibility. Police are investigating it as a possible honor killing, a common crime in Pakistan. Hira’s phone has been seized, and Anwar’s brother-in-law has been arrested. If convicted, they could face life imprisonment.

A Pakistani court sentenced former Prime Minister Imran Khan to 14 years in prison and his wife Bushra Bibi to 7 years over a £19 million corruption case linked to the Al-Qadir Trust. They were also fined; failure to pay will result in additional jail time. The verdict, postponed thrice, follows accusations filed in February 2024. PTI lawyers argue the decision reflects injustice. National Accountability Bureau officials and legal representatives were present during the ruling.
