Husband’s fears over death of wife

-

THE HUSBAND of a 28-year-old British woman who died in Pakistan said that a 7.5 inch bruise was found on her neck.

Samia Shahid, from Bradford, died last week while visiting relatives in northern Punjab.

Her family said she died from natural causes. But her husband, Syed Mukhtar Kazam, believes she was killed because of her marriage to him, her second husband. Ms Shahid’s family has strongly denied any involvemen­t in her death.

Mr Kazam, who said he has seen a post-mortem examinatio­n report, fears his wife may have been strangled.

He told the BBC: “I am not trusting the doctors and I am not trusting the police at the moment because the evidence I have now has changed everything.”
