KARACHI: Shocking details emerged in Humaira Asghar death case revealed rental her dispute with landlord since 2019, ARY News reported.
Documents revealed that the rental agreement, signed on December 20, 2018, required Humaira to vacate the flat upon completion and pay an additional 10% annual rent increase, which the landlord claims she failed to do.
The landlord issued eviction notices on June 3 and June 17, 2021, demanding unpaid rent, which amounted to Rs. 40,000 in 2019-2020, Rs. 92,400 in 2020-2021, and a total of Rs. 535,084 by 2023.
Despite multiple court notices, Humaira did not respond, leading to the court’s enforcement order. The landlord had also sought to break the flat’s lock to reclaim possession due to unpaid rent since April 2024.
Humaira’s body was found on July 8, 2025, after Gizri Police, accompanied by a court bailiff, broke into her fourth-floor apartment in Ittehad Commercial Area to enforce an eviction order.
The landlord had initiated legal action due to unpaid rent since April 2024. Neighbors reported a foul odor, but a vacant adjacent apartment, unoccupied until February 2025, likely delayed detection. The locked main and balcony doors suggested Humaira was alone at the time of death.
