A man in Pakistan has been charged with murder after allegedly shooting the administrator of a community WhatsApp group who had removed him from the chat.
The victim, identified as Mushtaq Ahmed, was killed on Thursday evening in Peshawar, the capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, a region known for sectarian violence and armed conflicts.
According to police reports, the suspect, named Ashfaq, was enraged after being removed from the group following an argument. In an attempt to reconcile, both men agreed to meet, but the situation took a deadly turn when Ashfaq allegedly arrived armed and shot Mushtaq.
The victim’s brother, who provided a statement to the authorities, claimed that Ashfaq acted out of anger over his removal from the chat.
The incident highlights ongoing concerns about the easy availability of firearms in the region, the influence of tribal customs, and the challenges of law enforcement in curbing violent disputes.
