Brother admits "honour killing" of Pakistani social media star

Waseem said he killed his sister due to her social media activities, which included a series of posts with a prominent Muslim cleric, Abdul Qavi

The brother of Qandeel Baloch, whose risqué social media posts both titillated and appalled conservative Pakistan, on Sunday admitted to strangling her in a crime that reignited debate about so-called "honour killings" in the South Asian nation.

 Muhammad Waseem said he gave a "tablet" to Baloch to subdue her and then strangled her in their family home over the weekend. "I have no regrets," he told journalists in a press conference arranged by the police early on Sunday.
