News Desk

ISLAMABAD: A major development has emerged in the suicide case of Laiba Ejaz, a gold-medalist student in Islamabad, with the arrested suspect, Numan, reportedly confessing to fraud, according to police.

Investigating authorities have sent the suspect’s mobile phone for forensic analysis, while Ramna Police have registered a case against him on the complaint of Laiba’s father.

According to police, Laiba came into contact with Numan through a girl named Aiza, whose brother lives in the United States. The suspect allegedly provided Laiba with forged documents claiming to confirm her admission to a foreign university and the issuance of a visa.

Police have arrested Numan and launched further investigations to establish the full circumstances of the case. The forensic examination of his mobile phone is expected to assist investigators in gathering further evidence.

Laiba’s father reportedly spent hundreds of thousands of rupees to arrange his daughter’s education abroad. The money was raised by selling a plot of land and mortgaging jewellery in an effort to secure her admission.

According to the initial account, Laiba was left devastated after discovering that the admission letter was fake and allegedly took her own life as a result.

The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are examining the alleged fraud and the circumstances surrounding Laiba’s death.
