ISLAMABAD: Umar Hayat, 22, who was arrested for the murder of 17-year-old social media influencer Sana Yousuf, has confessed to his crime in court.
He admitted that he killed her out of anger and revenge after she refused to meet him.
According to media reports, Umar was produced before Judicial Magistrate Saad Nazir where he recorded his confessional statement under Section 164 of the Pakistan Penal Code. In his statement, he said that he wanted to meet Sana, but her repeated refusals pushed him over the edge.
Umar explained that on his first visit to Sana’s house, he waited all day, but she refused to meet him and asked him to leave. He had also brought her a birthday gift, which she rejected.
On June 2, Sana allegedly called him again, but the meeting turned sour again, which angered her. Umar admitted that in a fit of rage, he forced his way into her house and shot her twice in the chest, killing her instantly.
The incident, which took place on the evening of June 2, shocked the public, especially Sana’s followers on social media, many of whom expressed grief and anger at the senseless killing.
