Her driver's condition is reported to be stable. Police suspect that her 'estranged lover' maybe behind her murder. Investigating Officer Asghar Husain told reporters that it was a target killing."The attackers were waiting outside the theater and when she left for home they chased her," he said.
"Kismat now you will not be able to dance," one of the gunmen said after spraying bullets on her legs, according to her driver.
"Baig was targeted twice in the past by gunmen but escaped unhurt. Initial investigation reveals that she had relations with an industrialist of Faisalabad city. We will summon the industrialist and some family members of Kismat for interrogation and soon will reach the murderer," Husain said.
Her mother said the family had no enmity with anyone. The family also held demonstration on the Canal Road to protest against the murder. They sought arrest of the 'goons' involved in the killing of Kismat at earliest.
