Makhdoom wrote in her IG story that “The father has told us he has 6 kids… the father sent the daughter (Zohra Shah) to Islamabad with her Khala (aunty) to study there. The khala then put Zohra Shah to work… where she was beaten to death.”

Khan also took to Instagram to announce the child protect fund and said, “We have assured them that we will get justice for Zohra, and ensured them that her siblings will receive a good education.”
