Man kills wife over ‘sale’ of daughter
By Shafiq Ahmad
PESHAWAR, May 1: A man allegedly killed his wife when she refused to agree to sell their daughter to an Afghan in Bhana Mari area, here on Sunday. Miss Abida, 20, told police that her father Anwar Khan wanted to sell her for Rs50,000 to Afghan national Hasan Khan. Her mother Rashida Bibi opposed the move, Ms Abida said in the FIR.
Anwar Khan raised the issue on Sunday morning, but when her mother rejected the proposal, he pulled out a pistol and shot her dead, police officials said.
Afghans traditionally pay some money as `Walvar’ to the family of a girl before wedding. However, poor families misuse this custom for financial gains.
