Fatima, the sister of the deceased, has also mentioned Maha Ali's suicide attempts and intentions in various contexts.
According to investigative sources, Maha Ali had met Junaid Khan, the alleged perpetrator of the Young Lady Doctor's suicide, several years ago, and since then she has been a victim of a free environment and misbehavior.
Police, citing recorded statements in the case of Maha Ali's suicide, said that Junaid Khan allegedly drugged Maha Ali, took him to various private parties but later misbehaved and resorted to violence. Because of this Maha Ali was unable to do so.
Police have confirmed that Maha Ali first asked Junaid Khan to bring a pistol to commit suicide, but he did not do so. He then asked his new friend Tabish Qureshi to do the same. Tabish got a 9mm pistol from his friend Saeed Siddiqui for a day or two which he gave to Maha Ali.
Tabish said in an initial statement that he only handed over a pistol which did not contain bullets, but according to police, the pistol contained three bullets, one of which was fired by Maha Ali himself while two bullets were recovered from the pistol.
Asif Ali Shah, from Mirpur Khas, lives in Karachi for his children's education and employment. The family rented the house two weeks ago. The rooms have not been set up yet. On this basis, Maha Ali, his younger sister Fatima, Asif Ali Shah and his mother slept in the same air-conditioned room. In addition to the double bed in the room, the two sisters had mattresses for their sleeping. However, Maha had set up a bathroom in the other room where the suicide took place.
According to police, at the time of the incident, a close friend of Asif Ali Shah, father of the deceased Maha Ali, had gone to the house of a member of the Provincial Assembly while another guest was also coming to the house. The three friends were in another room. According to the police investigation, two domestic workers were also at home at the time of the incident.
If the cause of death of the female doctor is any individual, then why the police did not register a case? On this question, SSP East Shiraz Nazir said that the police cannot do this on their own, the relatives of the deceased can file a case against the person responsible if they want.
