Qandeel Baloch, a Pakistani model who was called to be Pakistan’s Kim Kardashian, was shot dead by her brother on Saturday.
In another case of honour killing, the model was killed in Multan.
Wondering why? Apparently, because she was posting bold videos and statuses on Facebook. Many of the country’s youth was supporting her for her attitude.
She used to face a lot of online abuses and threats, too.
She was a controversial hit on Valentine’s Day when even after Pakistan’s President’s warning against the “western holiday”, she wore a revealing red dress and posted a message.
The post, needless to say, went viral.
What are we feeling now? Richa Chadha reads our heart in her tweets:
As foetuses girls die at the hands of fathers, for honour they die at the hands of brothers,as wives they die for dowry

Basically, women in the subcontinent must know that their families love them much less than they love their 'honour'.Our lives are not ours
