"The police arrested Muhammad Waseem, brother
of Qandeel Baloch, for killing his sister late on Saturday," Multan City
police chief Azhar Akram told AFP. "Waseem confessed to his crime, saying he
killed his sister for honour after her recent objectionable videos,
mostly posted on Facebook."
The killing sent shock waves across Muslim Pakistan and triggered an
outpouring of grief on social media for Baloch, whose real name was
Fauzia Azeem.
In Facebook posts, Baloch, 26, spoke of trying to change "the typical
orthodox mindset" of people in Pakistan. She faced frequent misogynist
abuse and death threats but continued to post provocative pictures and
videos.
