The post-mortem report of the Noor Mukadam was released on Friday, stating that she was beheaded after being murdered in Islamabad.
As per sources, the accused had planned the crime and had taken some of his friends into confidence regarding the plan a few days before the incident.
The accused called Noor at this residence on July 20th and told her to switch her phone off. When her parents couldn’t contact her, they started questioning her friends about her location.
When some of Noor’s friends went to Jaffer’s residence to inquire about the deceased, he denied seeing her. Upon this, Noor’s friends had a fight with Jaffer, sources told the police.
After brutally murdering Noor, the accused tried fleeing to the United States but was arrested on time.
It should be noted that Jaffer had previously been deported from the United Kingdom on charges of assaulting a female.
