A woman was stabbed to death allegedly by her husband in the name of so-called honour on the outskirts of the metropolis on Wednesday.

Police said that Ali Hasan Sheikh was arrested for murdering his 42-year-old wife, Parveen, in Sector-17-A of Shah Latif Town.

Area SHO Mumtaz Marwat told Dawn that the couple, along with their seven children, had moved here from Larkana around nine months ago. They worked here in a factory, he added.

The SHO said that the suspect told the police that when he returned from his workplace on Wednesday he saw a man leaving his house. He said he had suspicion about her character and in a fit of anger he attacked his wife, initially with a hammer, and later stabbed her.

He expressed no remorse over his act, the police officer said.

The body was shifted to the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) for medico-legal formalities.

The police said that the victim was the mother of five sons and two daughters.
