Samia Sarwar - Aftermath

Aftermath

Nadir was dismissed from the army on the basis of irresponsible behavior, and left the country soon after. He is believed to be residing in Britain, and is married with two children.

Despite public protests and demonstrations, Pakistani authorities have yet to make arrests in the case.

The case is notable for a number of reasons. Firstly, some claim (such as James Emery, Anthropologist at Metropolitan State College of Denver, USA) that honour killings only occur among rural or uneducated groups - whereas Samia's mother was a doctor - and her father Ghulam Sarwar Khan Mohmand, a wealthy businessman and head of the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chamber of Commerce.
