A young girl named Adeela Bibi was reportedly burned alive by her father Muhammad Akram Jat allegedly with the assistance of his family for honour.

The family hurriedly buried the body without notifying the police.

Someone informed Gojra Saddar police that arrested Jat and his son Abdul Islam of Chak 360-JB, Boobak. They gave contradictory statement which did not match to each other over which police registered a case.

The police said the body would be exhumed for an autopsy after getting permission from the court.
