Police were alerted about a woman lying in an injured condition at the ground this morning, he said. A team of Azad Maidan Police rushed to the spot and found the woman unconscious with deep injuries on her stomach and other parts of the body, he said. She was taken to a nearby hospital, where she was declared dead before admission, he said.
Police managed to get her residential address and contacted her father Umar Mohammed Shekh, the official said. As Nasrin didn't return home since last morning, her father had approached Salman to know whereabouts of his daughter, he said. During the enquiry, Umar named Salman as a suspect, the official said.
Accordingly, police interrogated Salman for more than four hours during which he reportedly confessed to the crime. A case has been registered and further investigation is on.
