Family rise up demanding justice for daughter found petrol burnt in a lodge
The family of Limbe-based Mohammad Hussein Shaik are in deep mourning of their only daughter, 24-year-old Kulsum, who was found burnt in a lodge at Mount Pleasant in Blantyre and later died in hospital and is suspected to have been murdered by her boyfriend Raja Umair Ayub of Pakistan origin on September 26.
The suspect was arrested by the police and charged with murder and, according to Blantyre Police spokesman, Augustine Nkhwazi, the case is currently in the High Court.
It is reported that Kulsum was found burnt at a lodge at Mount Pleasant in Blantyre and later died at Mwaiwathu Hospital.
The lady left home on September 26 to meet Ayub in Limbe, Blantyre.
The two agree to have a discussion at an executive lodge in the city.
“Ayub claims that minutes after arriving at the lodge, he left the room to buy water outside and on his return he found the girlfriend burnt with petrol,” said Blantyre police spokesperson.
But police still arrested him for further investigations that led to him being charged for murder at the Magistrate Court and later committed for trial to the High Court.
The grieved father, Mohemd Hussein Shakih from Mpingwe, had said Umair visited his home to inform him that his daughter had been burnt but never gave further explanation how it actually happened.
Shaik is reportedly saying his family wants justice and accused the police of doggy in the way they are handling the matter.
But Nkhwazi said the matter is now in the hands of the High Court, which is yet to set date for hearing.
The family has since launched a strong campaign in order for justice to prevail and are distributing fliers and also posting pictures on social media with messages of asking for justice.

The biggest question
Where did the petrol come from
He went to get water
He dint know were the pateol came from
Clear case
What a sad story. May her soul rest in peace! The family indeed needs justice and conclusion to the case. It’s very painful to lose a daughter like this.
If the guy really did this, he deserves to be locked and throw away the keys! If he no longer wanted the girl, why not just part with her peacefully?
the two agreed to have a discussion at an executive lodge?? seriously? what discussion? or they were there to have sex? to fuck.. stupid reporting
…Stupid comment.
Of course, they agreed to rendezvous for romance since they were lovers, but the man had an ulterior motive – to murder the girl because of jealousy ( according to a previous report on these same pages).
No matter the circumstances, murder was committed. The perpetrator has a case to answer.
Booked a hotel for sex that is the truth and looks like it was a regular thing for them, anyone seen the last post or have you all forgotten she was married, so not only she was cheating on her husband apparently who is based in the uk, as we all know very well, I wonder what the family said to the Husband and In-laws sorry the daughter passed away as she died sleeping with another man, she very well known in the community how many other people she has been sleeping with and she not the only daughter that… Read more »
This is too bad. Sorry for the loss. Koma zoti muzitinamiza kuti anapita ku Lodge mpaka kupanga book room kuti akambirane ndiye yosamvekatu. Anali kodyana awa pali chomwe chinachitika atadyana kapena mkaziyu anali ndi mimba ndiye paja amwenye simufuna kuyaluka mmalola kuchosa moyo wa munthu. A Police mukhale open akhonza anamupha ndi achibale zao za Honour Killing
Justice must be done…Where they come from they can kill women without any Implication…They call it Honour Killing …But this is not Pakistan…By the way where is the Case of that Poor Girl who was Raped in Mpingwe ? …Kuli ziii olo ndi ma NGO osayikoka …
HOW DOES ONE GET BURN IN A ROOM ENI AKE A LODGE OSADZIWA???
Too bad. Too soon. Unfortunate for the family to lose this young lady. Murder amongst the Orientals doesn’t mean a thing especially a woman. By instantly going to the parents he never thought about the implications of his report. This is Nyasaland we abhor murderers. Ask Chanthunya who has a story about the Zimbabwe lady,he was a fugitive but extradition brought him to the palaces of our justice.
