In a disturbing development following yesterday’s tragic double murder case in Defence Housing Authority (DHA) Khayaban-e-Mujahid, the accused mother, Adeeba, has confessed to killing her two children and revealed chilling details during police interrogation.
According to investigators, Adeeba claimed that her children would often stay at her home and that her son repeatedly expressed a wish to go to a place “where there would be no pain.”
She told Karachi police officials, “I took them to a place where they will no longer suffer.”
The suspect admitted to taking both children into the washroom and fatally attacking them with a sharp-edged weapon. Karachi police officials say a formal case against Adeeba is likely to be registered today as the investigation proceeds.
According to Karachi police, the victims include one boy and a girl, aged between 4 and 7 years. The incident was linked to a custody dispute following the mother’s divorce in September 2024.
