The woman, identified as Delia Alberto Nasir, arrived in Karachi with her children on August 3.

She said she had come to take possession of a property in Millat Garden belonging to her late husband.

According to police, her brother-in-law, identified as Danish, opened fire on her during the dispute, hitting her in the leg and chest.

The suspect later obtained pre-arrest bail and has since gone into hiding.

The Saudabad police have registered a case, and an investigation is under way.

Speaking to Aaj News, Delia appealed for justice, saying, “I came from Japan to claim my property in Milllat Garden, but my brother-in-law shot me instead.”
