The whole world was shocked by the death of Qandeel Baloch, nicknamed the Pakistani “Kim Kardashian”. In 2016, her brother mercilessly strangled her because the young woman did not agree to stop posting her photos on Facebook. And just 6 years behind bars for her, she got a pardon from her mother.
Waseem Azeem openly confessed to the media that he was “not ashamed” of having killed his own 26-year-old sister. The subject planned his “honor” murder, considering that the images of him were very “provocative” and dishonored his family, the Daily Mail published at the time.
The controversial selfies and videos of the beautiful young woman caused controversy in the conservative Pakistani society, where the deaths of hundreds of women at the hands of their relatives are recorded every year.
The pardon of the mother of the Pakistani “Kim Kardashian”
Although the death of Fauzia Azeem, who was known as Qandeel Baloch, caused an international commotion, the freedom of her murderer occurs after her mother granted her a pardon.
In 2019, the Pakistani justice sentenced the man to life in prison, but Islamic law provides pardon for honor killings. For this reason, on Monday, February 14, 2022, he was acquitted by a Multan city court.
Sardar Mahboob, a lawyer for the sentenced person, explained that the young woman’s parents requested her release and thus began the process of deliberating for her pardon, the British newspaper detailed in a new publication.
The testimony of the mother of the Azeem brothers reveals her position on Qandeel’s murder. “I am happy for my son’s acquittal, but we are still sad for the loss of our daughter,” said Anwar Bibi, as she welcomed the court order.
He confirmed his approval by having Waseem released in the coming days. “I am grateful to the court that ordered the release of my son at our request.”
The brother of the Pakistani “Kim Kardashian” planned the death of the young woman without any hesitation in the same house where she lived with her parents.

He first drugged her by giving her some pills to take and then strangled her while her parents slept at night.
After being arrested, he confessed to the police that he was not ashamed of what he did. “Whatever was the case, it was completely intolerable,” he said, justifying his behavior by the images that Qandeel published on the networks of him.
