LAHORE (HRNW): In a chilling incident at a hotel in Shahdara, a Master’s student named Aleena has confessed to the targeted killing of her friend. During her statement to the police, the suspect admitted to shooting the victim in the head and chest, claiming he deserved it for his actions.
Key details from the investigation include:

The Incident and Escape: Gunfire was heard at a Shahdara hotel last month, but as management spent over an hour searching for the source of the noise, the suspect managed to escape the scene.
-
Arrest via CCTV: Police identified Aleena through CCTV footage and apprehended her at her residence 72 hours later.
-
Motive for the Killing: The suspect stated that the victim had been blackmailing her for a year under the guise of friendship. He allegedly used recorded immoral videos to threaten and coerce her into meetings.
-
Premeditation: After a final failed attempt to have the videos deleted, Aleena brought her father’s licensed pistol to the hotel, having learned how to operate the firearm via YouTube.
-
Confession of Guilt: The suspect admitted she waited for half an hour to ensure the victim was dead and misled hotel staff by claiming the noise came from another floor to facilitate her exit.
The police have completed initial legal formalities and transferred the suspect to jail.
