Disown infamous identity

Historically, Sindh is known for custodian of women. But now a new identity is being foisted on it. Killing of sisters, daughter, wife, sister in-laws etc over some petty matter have become order of day.
Newspapers daily carry number of painful stories......
In Sultankot district Shikarpur. One Arbab Shar shot dead his wife in the presence of his minor daughter and later buried her body without formal funeral. The parents of deceased woman said that the accused was gambler and used to subject the torture to the deceased. On the same day Ahmed Ali Janwari injured his wife Habiban over some domestic matter. Makhan Khatoon was killed near Dakhan.
One more painful aspect of this incident is due to non availability of lady doctor the heir of deceased were running from pillar to post to conduct autopsy.
Sindh has held values time when beating or torturing a woman was considered as crime and such offender was termed as coward one. But today, woman is sold and chopped into pieces on one or the other pretext.
What has gone wrong with the nation which claims to be inheritor of 5000 year old civilisation? as it was not hesitating to such painful and shameful acts.

In fact these all incidents are attack on peace, honour.
This should be checked at all levels and by all the stakeholders.

The government should take notice of these incidents and deal with iron hands to those who are playing with woman like a football.
