Punjab woman minister shot dead at partyÂ’s office
2007-02-21
LAHORE — Punjab Minister for Social Welfare Zille Huma Usman was shot dead in the Muslim League House in Gujranwala, some 60km from here, yesterday.

The young minister was also provincial secretary-general of the women wing of the ruling party. Zille Huma had gone to the Muslim League House to preside over a meeting when a man shot at her, causing serious injuries in the head. The authorities brought the profusely bleeding minister by a helicopter to the Lahore General Hospital, specialised in treating brain injuries. However, the doctors pronounced her dead upon her arrival.

The attacker, identified as Ghulam Sarwar, had been arrested after the incident. According to the Gujaranwala DPO, Ghulam Sarwar had killed 12 call girls of Lahore. He was earlier arrested for the murder of call girls and was released from jail last year. The accused was handed over to CIA staff that shifted him at an undisclosed place. Investigators were still questioning the killer to find out why he targeted the minister.

30 days community service for killing 12 women?

Completely understandable. Sarwar obviously mistook a politician for a whore.
