Teenaged girl dies after jumping from Karachi apartment building
A young girl tragically fell to her death from the window of an eighth-floor apartment in Karachi’s North Nazimabad area.
16-year-old Anadiya was found dead on the street below the Sky Blue Apartments, located close to Isa Laboratory. A Chhipa ambulance transported her body to Abbasi Shaheed Hospital.
Anadiya's father, Muhammad Iqbal, who works in the private sector, has one son and four daughters. His youngest children are twins, with Anadiya being the younger of the two.
The family claims that Anadiya was undergoing therapy at a private facility for mental health problems.
Additionally, she had recently become more religiously inclined. Anadiya and her twin sister, Maryam, were at home when the tragedy occurred while their parents and two sisters had gone shopping. According to initial reports, Anadiya jumped from the eighth floor while standing near the window.
According to the police, Maryam was too devastated by her sister's passing to make a statement, and their parents were similarly in shock. Their statements will be recorded once the family is stable.
Certain aspects of the incident, however, have already raised concerns, even though the police believe Anadiya's death may have been intentional.
She allegedly jumped from a tiny window, which may have made it difficult for her to get through. Furthermore, her body was not found directly below the window as expected but was discovered at a considerable distance from the building.
Investigators believe these details will become clearer after speaking to the family. For now, the body has been handed over to the family following standard procedures.
