Pregnant woman shot dead for refusing to stand while singing in Pakistan
A pregnant Pakistani artist was shot dead during a festive ceremony in Larkana district of Sindh province as she refused to stand while singing.
Samina Samoon, also known as Samina Sindhu, was shot while she was singing.
A man identified as Tarique Ahmed Jatoi asked her to stand while singing.
The singer refused to comply to his demand apparently because she was pregnant. The denial took her life, as the man then shot at her.
The 24-year-old singer was taken to hospital where she was declared brought dead.
Her husband has demanded that the First Information Report (FIR) should charge the accused of double murder for killing his wife and unborn child. The accused has been arrested and an investigation has been launched into the singer's murder.
