According to police, Rafiq Khan, a resident of Shino Garhi, was hanged to death two weeks ago. The victim\u2019s wife allegedly misled the police by portraying the incident as a suicide.<br \/>\nShakeel Khan had reported his son\u2019s death to Urmar Police Station on January 29, 2026. Following the complaint, police launched a comprehensive investigation, including questioning family members. Contradictions in the statements of the deceased\u2019s wife and brother-in-law prompted further interrogation, which eventually led to confessions. The accused admitted that the murder was premeditated. According to police, the motive stemmed from a financial dispute: Rafiq Khan had sold a plot of land and given the proceeds to his brother-in-law, Saeed Khan,.<br \/>\nWhen Saeed Khan refused to return the money, he and the deceased\u2019s wife allegedly conspired to kill Rafiq Khan and stage it as a suicide.<br \/>\nSaeed Khan has been arrested, while the female accused has been transferred to the Women Police Station for further investigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PESHAWAR Police claim to have solved a case, revealing that the alleged suicide of Rafiq Khan was actually a premeditated murder.
