Woman hides truth due to words given to deceased

Irfana claimed that after the beating, Imtiaz told doctors that he had fallen from the roof and sustained injuries. She said that his husband had taken words from her not to disclose the name of their son as it would affect their daughters' marriage and family life on his arrest.

“Whenever doctors asked me the reason for injuries, my husband (Imtiaz) used to instruct me to not disclose anything. So, I kept mum. Haider too had threatened me over disclosing the actual thing,” she said. Imtiaz succumbed to injuries on May 10. A case of accident death was registered in a preliminary investigation.
