Death
Fatima Jinnah died in Karachi on July 9, 1967. The official cause of death was heart failure, but rumours persist that she was murdered at her house. Some official of the Karachi local police are claimed to have said that she was found beheaded in her drawing room. In 2003, the nephew of the Quaid-i-Azam, Akbar Pirbhai, reignited the controversy by suggesting that she was assassinated by the Ayub Khan establishment .
