On Sunday, the Gujjar Khan Police said that they were called to a house in Rojam city where a man named Khawar Mehmood had shot himself and killed his aunt and wife.
While the bodies were moved to the hospital for a post-mortem, the police stated that they had registered a first information regarding the case and started an investigation.
They claimed that they haven’t figured out why Mehmood took the action he did.
A similar incident occurred just three months ago in Karachi’s Shamsi society, where a man attempted suicide after killing his wife and three daughters.
The man made a failed suicide attempt and was taken to the hospital with injuries.
The perpetrator, who was identified as Fawad, worked as a sales manager for a private company, according to the preliminary investigation report.
Before attempting to slit his own throat, the police said that Fawad had killed his children and wife with a sharp object.
