Written by: Khadijah Shah (ROD)

RAWALPNDI, PAKISTAN >>> This is a story of a girl named ASMA AZEEM. She lived in the village named GARI AFGHANA. She was only 8 years old when her mother died because her father AZEEM JALAL used to beat her with batons. He was unemployed and uneducated. He used to drink and was addict of hashish. One day he came home late night, he found her daughter bed ridden and suffering badly with typhoid. Her mother SHAISTA cried in front of her husband and begged him to refer to some quack as they cannot afford any doctor. He started beating his wife with his boots and steel plates that were present in the kitchen, on her face. Blood started shedding from her nose and her three teeth broke at the very spot. She was shrieking with agony and Asma was crying for help. Then AZEEM lit the fire and burnt Shaista’s hair. The fire damaged her skull as well as burnt her skin all over her face. When she was at her last breath the neighbors came at the door and started knocking and pushing it. Azeem took Shaesta in their bedroom and locked the door. He tore her clothes and threw her on the floor. Then he started kicking on her breast, Shaesta was totally helpless as she was already burnt but could feel extra pain on her breast. Azeem’s 6 friends came and locked the neighbors in their homes. Shaesta’s breast was badly injured and bleeding and her ribs were broke as well. At that time she was only 25 years old and Asma was her only child. She died on the spot at 4:00 (AM) as she could not bear the brutal thrashing which lasted for 2 hours. Then Azeem’s friends came who were also addict of hash, they cut Shaista’s sexual organs with axes and knives and afterwards the whole body into pieces and then threw it into gutter and started urinating on it. Then one of them brought the bottle of acid and threw the acid on the body so that all the evidences should end. 2 of Azeem’s friend were left behind with Asma alone. They raped her together and prick her sensitive parts like lips, cheeks and breast so brutally that she also died. They threw acid on Asma’s genitals and ran away. When Azeem came home, he saw Asma and started beating himself madly. Police came and arrested him. He tried to explain to the police about his friends, but they won’t believe him. The Court sentenced him to death after 5 months, but 2 months before his execution AZEEM poisoned himself in jail and died on 27 May, 2004. During the interrogation Police asked him about the reason of killing his own wife and child so brutally, he said that that night he lost all his money in JUWA (gambling which is unlawful in Pakistan) and he even sold his wife and child to his friends so that he could win his money back but all ended in smoke.
