Sadiqabad Station House Officer (SHO) Chaudhry Zulfiqar said that it was likely that Fakhar slipped in the bathroom and died due to a head injury he sustained during the fall. His wife, who was a heart and cancer patient, died due to a cardiac arrest caused by the trauma of seeing her husband lying on the floor in a bloodied condition, he added.
The police registered a first information report (FIR) and was waiting for the postmortem results to register a case.
