The brother of Pakistani model-cum-actress Qandeel Baloch has confessed that he drugged and strangled his sister to death in the name of "honour". Baloch's brother was arrested by police on Saturday night after she was strangled to death in her house in Multan early in the morning.



Her father claimed that she was killed by her younger brother, Waseem, in the name of honour, Dawn online reported. Waseem said "she brought dishonour to the Baloch name" due to risque videos and statements that she posted on social media. "There are other issues as well... Like the maulvi issue," Waseem said, referring to a recent controversy surrounding Baloch's selfies with Mufti Qavi. "I gave her a tablet and then strangled her."
