LAHORE: A 22-year-old girl was discovered shot dead in the washroom of a Hotel on The Mall on Friday.
Police suspect the young lady may have committed suicide by shooting herself in the head.
Police said Rabia Naseer, who is from Batapur, left her home for school yet rather went to an inn on The Mall. The CCTV footage demonstrated that the girl entered the hall of the hotel talking on cellphone call and went to the washroom.
The security guards, who at first let her in without checking, heard a shot in the washroom and discovered it locked. The gatekeepers and different representatives accumulated outside the washroom and found the young lady dead on tearing the door open.
The hotel administration alerted police who sent the body to the morgue for autopsy. Police also recovered a handgun and a purse which were lying beside the girl’s body.
Civil Lines Division SP Ali Raza said the young lady was not staying at the hotel and went there by rickshaw and was not appropriately checked at the security points.
“We issued notices to the hotel administration after the incident and will investigate the lapse,” he added.
The SP cited the young lady's family as saying that she was a fourth-year understudy at Kinnaird College. The organization denied the young lady to be on its rolls.
“The girl was a student of Queen Mary College and would often visit Kinnaird to take part in different games such as cricket, hockey and basketball,” claimed its administration.
