Sarah Inam murder case: Accused Shahnawaz’s mother taken into custody
Sameena Shah's son Shahnawaz allegedly killed his wife Sarah Inam at home after a row over a family issue on September 23
ISLAMABAD: The mother of Shahnawaz Amir, the man accused of murdering economist Sarah Inam, has been taken into custody after her bail plea was dismissed.
Sameena Shah’s interim pre-arrest bail plea had been extended on October 1 by a district and sessions court in Islamabad.
The bail was extended after the court on September 26 had accepted the pre-arrest bail plea of Sameena against a surety bond of Rs50,000 and directed her to join the probe.
Her son Shahnawaz allegedly killed his wife Sarah at home after a row over a family issue on September 23.
Shahnawaz — who was detained by the police from a farmhouse in Islamabad's Chak Shahzad area for being a suspect in his wife's murder — confessed to committing the crime and said that he "thought" his spouse was having an affair with someone else. The couple was married for just three months.
