A video that appears to show a Pakistani woman threatening a crowd with a smirk on her face after allegedly murdering two people has left everyone on social media angry.
On August 19, a father-daughter duo was killed in a horrific accident on Karachi’s Karsaz Road. Natasha Danish, the suspect, has been detained for reckless driving in her Toyota Land Cruiser. In footage that has gone viral since, Natasha is seen standing in the middle of a sizable crowd looking disoriented but smiling.
Pakistanis are criticising the manner the accused is being treated preferentially by courts and law enforcement because of her family’s influence. The accused has been identified as the wife of entrepreneur Danish Ali, who runs Gul Ahmed Textile Mills Limited.
According to the Pakistani news website Dawn, Natasha was trying to turn her SUV when she struck a motorbike. After that, the vehicle crashed with two more motorcyclists before flipping over and hitting a parked car.
In addition to the father-daughter duo who lost their lives, three other people were reportedly injured.
Social media users have been angered by videos taken in the moments following the tragedy, which depict the suspect grinning and appearing remorseless.
According to the news portal Reviewit.pk, those on the spot stopped Natasha from fleeing. Although preliminary reports indicated that she might have been intoxicated when the accident happened, these assertions have not been verified.
In one video, she can be heard saying, “Tum mere baap ko nahi jantay” (you don’t know who my father is).
The overlaying text on the viral video reads, “Her smile is just a big question mark on our judicial system.”
A user commented, “Deep down she’s mocking she’ll be free because hamaare mulk mai ameero ka koi hisaab nahi” (Deep down, she’s mocking that she’ll be free because in our country, there’s no accountability for the rich).
Another user stated, “And they were protecting her. Agar humne aaj na bola, kal ko hume bhi koi isi tarah kuchal jaega phir bhi koi nahi bolega” (And they were protecting her. If we don’t speak up today, tomorrow someone else will be crushed in the same way, and no one will speak up then either).
“Lawless country”, read another comment.
A user suggested, “She was like ‘I can kill you all right now and still get away with no jail time’.”
The accused, who now faces various counts under the Pakistan Penal Code, stayed at home instead of being in police custody.
Her attorney, Amir Mansub, contended that his client was “getting treatment at the Jinnah hospital” and that her mental state “was not stable.”
However, hospital documents, as obtained by MM News, indicate that following medical assessments, she was declared fit. Medical professionals determined that no psychiatric intervention was needed at the moment.
Due to the suspect’s psychiatric treatment, the authorities were unable to summon her to court on August 20.
According to Dawn, the court only approved a one-day police remand, despite the investigating officer’s plea for a fourteen-day remand.
