 Pakistan Man Burns Alive Seven Family Members After Daughter Marries Against His Wishes.

    A man in Pakistan allegedly burned alive seven members of his family including his two daughters and four grandchildren because one of the women in his family got married against his wishes. 

    Manzoor Hussain was the man that set the house on fire with his family inside. The house was located in the Muzaffargarh district of Pakistan's Punjab province. Living in the house were his daughters Fauzia Bibi and Khurshid Mai along with their families. Bibi had an infant son and Mai had her husband and their four children. They were all burned in the flames. 

    Bibi's husband, Mehboob Ahmad, was not at the house the night of the fire and he reported to the police against his father-in-law, Manzoor Hussain, and his son Sabir Hussain. 

    Mehboob told the police "I was in the Multan for business. When I returned and was near my home, I see it in flames. Two men, Manzoor Hussain and Sabir Hussain were seen fleeing the spot."

    Mehboob informed the police that his and Bibi's love started in 2020 and this fueled Hussains wrath. He says that this attack on his wife and baby was an "honour killing".
