Unidentified Afghan man

Peshawar High Court has upheld sentence of death awarded to a convict by a trial court for killing his five-year-old daughter over suspicion of her legitimacy, Dawn reported on June 30, 2025.

The fact that two death row inmates died last year has been revealed belatedly. They died due to advanced age and illness while being in a state where capital punishment was not carried out for a long time.
