In her statement Jasmine told the magistrate that she became delighted when her daughter got admitted to Viqarunnisa Noon School but since then she kept getting bad results in examinations.

On March 3, Rapid Action Battalion claimed that the two Banasree siblings were killed by their own mother out of “concerns about their future”.
