In a separate incident, earlier this year, a Faisalabad man allegedly stabbed his wife to death, chopped her body and dumped the pieces in Saim Nullah of Faisalabad over a property dispute.
According to police, the incident occurred in Faisalabad’s Chak-61 village where the husband with help of his friend killed his wife after she had denied transferring her property to him. The culprits flee the scene after the incident.
