Kohat Police Release Suspect Photos In Dr Mehwish Murder

In a significant development in the murder case of Dr. Mehwish Hasnain, Kohat Police have released photographs of two suspects, Hayat Gul and Saif Ali Khan, who are currently at large. District Police Officer Shahbaz Elahi confirmed that both suspects have been hiding since the incident, which occurred shortly after Iftar when Dr. Mehwish was shot multiple times while returning home from the District Headquarters Hospital. Initial investigations revealed that the altercation between Dr. Mehwish and Hayat Gul, reportedly over a medical examination dispute, may have been the motive behind the attack. Elahi stated, "We have identified the suspects through various pieces of evidence and multiple investigative angles," emphasizing the ongoing search operations across the district to apprehend them (Daily Times, February 26, 2026).
