Not to diverge from the topic or to take away one bit from this tragedy of the gruesome murder of the young girl.

The irony on PP is that crimes committed in Pakistan are shared by Indian PPers and condemned first by Indians, while crimes in India are posted by Pakistanis and condemned by Pakistanis.
It seems even after the division of the countries deep down both feel the sense to improve the other countries law and order.

Did any Indian condemn the killing of innocent Pakistani civilians by their missile strike on May 7th?

Feels like it’s more about making Pakistan look bad than actually caring about the life lost

If the OP really wants to talk about serious issues, maybe he should be posting about the rape and murder of a 14-year-old Dalit girl that happened this morning in his own country instead of just pointing fingers at Pakistan.

Some backwards people have warped concept of honour and accuse tiktokers of spreading mischief and trouble. So they will view any female tiktokers singing or dancing as being a bad or dishonorable person who is corrupting others to follow her.

These people don't realize the irony of trying to solve this "dishonor" via murder.
 
Om Shanti.

What a sad loss of life of young and beautiful girl.
 
Rip. Not sure of her family economic status .I remember even in india a (social media influencer from very poor background who wanted to support her family) girl of same age was trapped , got pregnant and later killed by an idiot.Govt should keep a positive eye and consultation (if needed) with these youngsters.

I hate These rapist and already demand for Hang till the death .

To the Pakistanis

As I said in the minimum marriage age thread, Pakistan is an Islamic country so impose Islamic punishments on not only the perpetrators but also these sickos who celebrate death of an individual. Hunt these individuals down who use the cloak of anonymity to spew vile hate and poison and bring them to justice.

I don't know Sana Yousaf as to what she was believed in and what she propagated but nobody has the right to take justice into their own hands and mock someone's tragic death.

The West and India have disproportionally high rates of rape, sexual violence and murders so the problem in Pakistan won't be solved by passing Islamic laws which have largely failed in other parts of the world.

Get onboard and call for the death penalty clearly and unambiguously for all those involved in murders across Pakistan whether the perpetrator is a Mulla or a content creator but ensure that the perpetrator harged and given proper chance to defend themselves, don't let this turn into Indian hysterical mob lynching opportunity for vigilantism and spewing hate (online and on streets), you are better then Indians always remember that.

At the very least, the Indians are in no moral or authoritative position to lecture anyone on rapes, sexual violence and murder of women at all.
​
To the Indians

The reports so far from Islamabad police say that she was killed by a jilted lover OR it may have been a robbery whether he later turns out to be a "practicing Muslim" or not is besides the point. All indications so far are that there is no religious angle to it but even if it does, its a murder to be investigated with the perpetrator to be charged and then punished.

These sickos exist in India in larger numbers compared to Pakistan.

You all are truly despicable people! You are taking advantage of a horrific murder of a teenager to settle scores with Pakistan. The reality is that India has a huge rape crisis and it is well covered by the International Media, here is the CNN byline on the story​

‘In our culture there is no place for a woman’: How India’s institutions are failing rape victims​

Click to expand...

There is no comparison between India and Pakistan on rape, sexual violence and it is women safety and even Pakistan edges out or "scores lower" it is a tragedy which needs to be resolved in Pakistan by people of Pakistan.

Secondly, Indian social Media is notorious for issuing rape threats to individuals so if there are sick individuals and celebrating killing of children in Gaza so go hide in a rotten hole somewhere before pointing fingers at someone else.

That’s the point, Pakistanis open threads or reply in threads about mis-happenings in India and vice-versa. PP is full of people looking to score brownie points over the other country while living a comfortable life abroad, instead of actually caring about human life.
 
Lack of education and lack of knowledge giving way to these brainless Khwariji taking law into their own hands and shedding blood of innocent people.

culprit should be punished in a similar way.

You would like to think that, but I read Indian women complaining of exactly the same on Indian social media.

I feel that the subcontinent is just a third world cesspit of jahil behaviour which has been compounded by internet access. It is not about religion, if anything it is lack of it.
 
Happened cause of the lawless in the country. Blame isnt tiktok, blame is on the law making body of Pakistan. Police, lawyers, judges are mnas are at fault for this.

Reason being, everyone in Pakistan thinks that they can get away with any crime, as such things have happened in the past. No one fears the police or the law or have trust in the law, so its a jungle kingdom. Sometimes law gets implemented, sometimes it doesnt. Police caught the murderer in 20 hours and giving self pats on their backs, but they dont know its their own acts that caused this.

The fact that this guy goes up to this girl, doesnt think of the consequences and still shoots, gives you the idea how the law is perceived here.

Now everyone will bash tiktock, Instagram, some will blame this girl, but no one will look at the real picture.

Tiktok is an earning platform. You earn money from it if you know how to use it. Simple.

When facebook existed, same Pakistanis used to go crazy that how dare their relative abroad has uploaded their pic on social media. Now same Pakistanis have their own facebook accs.

Anyways, this girls death was really tragic. Since I live in Isloo, so my fb feed does show her content, so it just feels so weird that someone posting something yesterday was killed the next day (on her birthday).

Pakistani muslims will offcourse take pleasure in this death. But this is not something new. Remember the USA wildfire and how Pakistani muslims took pleasure in that. I made a thread about it and every Muslim here went crazy after me, now the same people are critsizing why the Muslim men are bashing this girl............

TikToker Sana Yousaf murder: Alleged killer rented a Fortuner but failed to pay rent

The prime suspect in the Tiktoker Sana Yousaf murder case, Umar Hayat, has confessed to the crime during police interrogation and disclosed the motive behind the murder.

According to the investigation, Hayat traveled from Faisalabad to Islamabad in a rented Toyota Fortuner.

He attempted to meet Yousaf twice, first on May 29, then on June 2, but she refused to see him both occasions.

Sources revealed that Hayat failed to pay the rental fee for the vehicle.

After his arrest, the owner of the rental company contacted police during the investigation and filed a claim for the unpaid amount.

During Yousaf’s birthday, Hayat arrived with gifts and a cake to meet her; however, when she refused, he became enraged and, allegedly driven by anger and rejection, killed her.

Hayat fled the scene after committing the crime as he initially booked a bike ride but later switched to a taxi midway through the journey, which took him to the main bus terminal in Islamabad.

From there, he traveled back to Faisalabad.

In his initial statement to the police, Hayat expressed that he was deeply upset over the victim’s refusal to meet him and claimed that he had murdered in a moment of emotional distress.

Police arrested a suspect in the case on Tuesday in Faisalabad, with the help of CCTV footage.

Yousuf from Upper Chitral, was shot dead at her residence in Islamabad’s G-13/1 sector on Monday.

According to police reports, unidentified assailants forcibly entered Yousuf’s home within the Sumbal police jurisdiction and opened fire, resulting in her immediate death.

The problem is, everyone in Pakistan knows that if you have money, you can get away with it. I don't know what it is like in other developing countries, but I am reading a similar story from an Indian who returned from the US to work in Chennai. Not as shocking as this one, but he too got shook down for a 1000rs bribe and ended up paying it for an easy life. Comments under that story was get out of India if you want a better life. I think the subcontinent is just not ready for democracy.

So why was he carrying a gun/pistol? Had he decided upfront that if she refuses meeting him, he will kill her?

And what kind of attitude is this? You just can't show up at a place and expect others to show same feelings, it just doesn't work like this. Whole incident is bizarre and tragic.
 
There was a celebrity in USA who was also shot by her admirer. She died.

Ladies need to be careful. Meeting strangers alone is very risky.

This killer deserves the death penalty. Senseless violence.

There will always be rapists, murderers, robbers in every country. But what matters is how the society reacts to such incidents. Do they condemn it or condone it. From the internet comments, it is clear that there are enough people who think she deserved to die for being on TikTok. This is not just a simple case of murder. The mindset is rotten.

The worst thing someone can say ladies need to be careful. The ladies are not at fault, its the person who is commiting the crime.

Its all about implementation of law. How you perceive the law and the police.

In Pakistan almost all of us know someone who does illegal stuff and gets away with it. That creates a perception in our mind that we can also do something heneous and get away with because we percieve the law like this.

The perception is right, that is the problem. You can't blame the general public when they know the law is only applicable to those without influence or power. The citizens need to be held to account, but that will never happen if the authorities can't be held to account.

I am not even a committed supporter to democracy any more. There are better run authoritarian regimes than some of the democracies in the SC.
 
TikToker Sana Yousaf's murder prompts safety advisory for digital creators

Following the tragic murder of TikToker Sana Yousaf, the National CERT (Cyber Emergency Response Team) has issued an urgent advisory for digital creators, including TikTokers, vloggers, influencers, and bloggers, urging them to safeguard their online and real-life presence.

The advisory warns that personal identity and opinions shared online can expose creators to threats both digitally and in the real world. It calls on content creators to maintain a safe, positive, and responsible digital presence.

The National CERT emphasized that protecting personal and digital security is crucial in today's connected world, particularly for individuals with public-facing roles.

The advisory comes amid rising concern over the safety of content creators in Pakistan, particularly women, as the digital space becomes increasingly volatile.

Parents need to keep an eye on their children. The internet and tiktok culture has been a cause of a lot of children related crimes. We know how that kid was kidnapped and "married" to that guy from karachi to lahore through pubg.
Majority of our population is still lacking sense. In absence of justice and proper law enforcement, such stuff will keep on happening. Kids of all people, need to have their futures saved and polished.
I hope the innocent life is granted heaven and the criminal be hanged.

I think this killer should receive the harshest and maximum punishment. An example needs to be set for deterence purpose.

A female friend of mine had a stalker like this. He harassed her a lot. She eventually changed her phone number.

I told her to go to police but she didn't want to ruin the dude's life. I thought that was quite naive. Bad people need to be locked up before they hurt others.

Qandeel Baloch was an adult, she was active in media and social media and hung around celebrities and politicians and even "religious entities" for what reason we can all guess. She was killed by her brother as a "dishonour" killing.

This young girl is a child, was active on a social media platform that million of young people use around the world. She was killed by a disgruntled admirer, whose advances she rejected.

How is this similar to Qandeel Baloch?

It does by a big margin.

When there is a perception that the police and court will be brutal against if you commit a crime, that does reduce crime rate. You cant eliminate it 100% but it can be reduced and that is through creating the perception of law implementation.

In pakistan, almost everyone in their circle know of someone that got away with corruption or something illegal, does reducing the perception of law implementation and allowing many of us to think that if we are to commit a crime we will get away with it in Pakistan

Don’t let them silence you, says Aseefa on Sana Yousaf murder

First Lady and MNA Aseefa Bhutto-Zardari has condemned the murder of teenage social media influencer Sana Yousaf in Islamabad, who was gunned down on the eve of her 17th birthday last week, saying that the incident should not silence girls and discourage from trying to achieve their dreams.

Sana Yousaf was shot dead at her residence in Sector G-13 in the presence of her mother and aunt by an unidentified man who fled the scene. Police arrested the suspect Omar Hayat within a few hours who police claimed murdered Sana because she repeatedly refused his advances.

Inspector General Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi said the suspect was arrested from Faisalabad within 20 hours of the incident. A local court approved a 14-day judicial remand of the prime suspect to facilitate his identification parade.

Calling it a stark reminder of the violence women and girls face simply for asserting their rights, Aseefa extended her condolences to Sana’s family, the community in Chitral, and all those grieving this senseless loss.

“Sana was just a girl—with ambition, with dreams, with a life ahead of her,” Aseefa said in a statement. “She had every right to live freely and safely. What happened to her wasn’t just an act of violence — it was a punishment for saying no. And that should horrify every one of us.”

She highlighted that violence stemming from male entitlement is neither new nor rare—and must no longer be tolerated under the guise of culture or tradition.

“This mindset that a woman’s rejection is an insult, that her choices need to be controlled—it’s old, it’s cruel, and it’s killing our daughters. My mother, Shaheed Benazir Bhutto, broke those walls with her own strength. She didn’t just lead—she opened doors for millions of women to follow. And we owe it to her legacy, and to young women like Sana, to keep those doors open.”

Addressing the wave of online abuse directed at Sana after her death, Aseefa rejected the idea that social media use or self-expression could ever be used to justify violence.

“There is nothing—no app, no photo, no video—that excuses murder. It’s disturbing to see people using Sana’s TikTok presence to explain away her death. If that’s the logic, are we saying millions of girls across Pakistan are also at risk? This kind of thinking is not just dangerous—it’s inhumane.” She closed with a message of solidarity and defiance to young women across the country.

“To every girl watching this unfold—don’t let them silence you. You have the right to dream, to speak, to exist without fear. Don’t back down. If you do, they win. But if we keep pushing forward—together—we’ll shape a country where girls aren’t blamed for their own deaths, but celebrated for their lives.”

Teenager Sana Yousaf was well-known for her social media activities, with nearly 800,000 followers on her TikTok account and almost 500,000 on her Instagram account.

The thing with Pakistan is that no matter what they do they can't change the mentality that has been breeding this kind of behaviour for decades and such incidents will carry on taking place in our society.

Whatever women wear, they're subjected to being eyed upon from head to toe regardless of even if they're fully clothed and wearing a head scarf or hijab.

For women to even walk out alone at any time there is a big crime as they get approached by opportunists at all places big or small towns don't matter.

It is unfortunate that the world is progressing at a fast pace meanwhile, we keep regressing at an ever faster pace.

I think this is an affliction particular to the subcontinent, seems to be prevalent across the whole area across the borders. I would blame 3rd world mentality, but I am not sure it is like this in other developing countries, for example in Africa or East Asia?
 
South Asian culture is unfortunately hyper sensitive, patriarchal and overwhelmingly intolerant. This mindset needs to be purged, I think it’s only possible with exposure to the rest of the world.

No other culture lives in such a manner.

I'd say it's more prevalent in Pakistan than actual SC as indians wear such clothes as their celebs do even if majority don't but you'll see young girls and women there walking in shorts and a t-shirt and that'll be like normal for them where as if a woman is out in that in Pak, it won't be seen as normal.

Yes, I have seen Pakistanis regularly complain about it so I assumed it was so, but reading Indian social media has been an eye opener. Just look at this video and tell me it doesn't strike a familiar chord:

Umar Hayat Confession

A "non-practicing" TikToker killed a 17 year old because she refused to continue their relationship, nothing to do with Islam.

This is my post on the subject:

My duas are with her family and loved ones.

To the Pakistanis

As I said in the minimum marriage age thread, Pakistan is an Islamic country so impose Islamic punishments on not only the perpetrators but also these sickos who celebrate death of an individual. Hunt these individuals down who use the cloak of anonymity to spew vile hate and poison and bring them to justice.

I don't know Sana Yousaf as to what she was believed in and what she propagated but nobody has the right to take justice into their own hands and mock someone's tragic death.

The West and India have disproportionally high rates of rape, sexual violence and murders so the problem in Pakistan won't be solved by passing Islamic laws which have largely failed in other parts of the world.

Get onboard and call for the death penalty clearly and unambiguously for all those involved in murders across Pakistan whether the perpetrator is a Mulla or a content creator but ensure that the perpetrator harged and given proper chance to defend themselves, don't let this turn into Indian hysterical mob lynching opportunity for vigilantism and spewing hate (online and on streets), you are better then Indians always remember that.

At the very least, the Indians are in no moral or authoritative position to lecture anyone on rapes, sexual violence and murder of women at all.
​
To the Indians

The reports so far from Islamabad police say that she was killed by a jilted lover OR it may have been a robbery whether he later turns out to be a "practicing Muslim" or not is besides the point. All indications so far are that there is no religious angle to it but even if it does, its a murder to be investigated with the perpetrator to be charged and then punished.

These sickos exist in India in larger numbers compared to Pakistan.

You all are truly despicable people! You are taking advantage of a horrific murder of a teenager to settle scores with Pakistan. The reality is that India has a huge rape crisis and it is well covered by the International Media, here is the CNN byline on the story​


There is no comparison between India and Pakistan on rape, sexual violence and it is women safety and even Pakistan edges out or "scores lower" it is a tragedy which needs to be resolved in Pakistan by people of Pakistan.

Secondly, Indian social Media is notorious for issuing rape threats to individuals so if there are sick individuals and celebrating killing of children in Gaza so go hide in a rotten hole somewhere before pointing fingers at someone else.

Sana Yousaf’s murderer claims he acted out of suspicion of betrayal

The alleged murderer of teenage TikToker Sana Yousaf in his confessional statement admitted to have committed the crime, claiming he acted out of suspicion of betrayal.

Omar Hayat, the prime suspect in the case, recorded his statement under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) before a local magistrate.

In his confession, Hayat detailed the motive behind the killing, how the crime was committed, his escape plan, and where he disposed of the murder weapon.

Hayat, son of a retired government official and a TikToker himself, stated that he became acquainted with 17-year-old Sana through the social media platform. Their interaction gradually developed into a one-sided infatuation on his part.

In confessional statement, he admits to have committed the crime

According to the statement, Hayat travelled from his hometown, Jaranwala, to Islamabad on May 28, to wish Sana on her birthday. When she failed to meet him, he returned home feeling heartbroken and suspicious that she was deliberately avoiding him, suspecting she might have been involved with someone else.

He further confessed that they had agreed to meet again on June 2. That day, he rented a Toyota Fortuner and brought a 30-bore pistol with him—intending to kill her if she refused to see him.

After repeated calls went unanswered, he drove to her residence in Islamabad’s G-13 sector and parked his car nearby her house. Despite several attempts to contact her, he received no response. Hayat then forcibly entered the house and fatally shot Sana in front of two women—her mother and maternal aunt.

He then took Sana’s mobile phone and fled the scene in order to destroy the evidence of their conversation.

According to his confession, he instructed the driver to speed away and later stopped near a railway bridge, where he hid the pistol. He was eventually dropped off near the Chungi No. 26 bus stop, from where he boarded a vehicle back to Jaranwala.

Hayat expressed remorse in his statement, saying he was ashamed of having killed an innocent teenage girl. He told the magistrate that he was confessing voluntarily, without any coercion or pressure, as an act of repentance.

“I feel deeply ashamed for committing such a cruel act,” he reportedly said, when asked why he chose to confess.

The investigating officer stated that Hayat was given time to reflect before recording the confession and was told it would be used as evidence against him. After an hour, he reaffirmed his willingness to proceed.

Sana Yousaf, a well-known social media influencer, was shot dead at her residence on June 2. At the time of the murder, her aunt was present at home while her parents were away.

Islamabad Police arrested Hayat within 20 hours of the incident during a raid in Faisalabad. During the arrest, police recovered both the murder weapon and the victim’s mobile phone from his possession.

Investigators believe Hayat took the phone to destroy digital evidence. According to police, raids were conducted at over 11 locations across three cities to track the suspect. Limited initial leads made the investigation challenging, but law enforcement used geo-fencing and CCTV footage to trace his escape route — from G-13 to Chungi No. 26 — where he boarded a passenger vehicle to Jaranwala.
