A poverty-stricken mother administered poison to herself and her three daughters in Faisalabad on Thursday.
According to police, 30-year-old Ayesha tried to kill herself and three children over a domestic dispute. They were shifted to the civil hospital but two girls died. The mother’s condition is said to be critical.
The dead children were identified as 6-year-old Bisma and 8-month-old Fatima while 12-year-old Bano is being treated at the hospital. She is out of danger, doctors said.
Ayesha’s husband Abbas told that he is a carpenter and he was facing financial problems for the last three years that had angered his wife.
