RAWALPINDI: A few worded statement of a five-year-old child helped the police arrest his mother allegedly involved in the murder of his father.
Farhanul Haq, who had been serving in the Capital Development Authority (CDA) as deputy director finance, was murdered in his house in Dhoke Kashmirian, Sadiqabad on Jan 21.
Mohammad Jameel, who had been leading the murder investigation, said the murder case was reported to the police by Sikandar Farooq, a close relative of the deceased.
The investigating officer said the deceased Farhanul Haq had married Ms Amina 17 years ago and had a son.
The son of the deceased was at home when his father was gunned down.

The online lecture was organised by the varsity’s Department of Geography and Disaster Management (DGDM) in memory of late Professor Husain, who headed the Department (then Department of Geography and Regional Management) from 1981 to 1987.
Asserting that Professor Husain, apart from being an erudite scholar, was a great human being, Prof Talat said memorial lectures are a fitting tribute to eminent personalities who have left an indelible mark with their contributions.
“Such lecturers help young students to draw inspiration from great people who have immensely contributed to the institutions they served by dint of their determination,” he said.
