Lahore: Mother and Daughter Die After Falling into Manhole – Family Forgives Named Accused

Court Orders Release of Five Arrested Accused on Basis of Compromise
Lahore — In the tragic case of a mother and daughter who lost their lives after falling into an open manhole in Lahore, the heirs have formally forgiven all the named accused.
After the family submitted a written compromise and pardon affidavit in court, the judge approved the settlement and ordered the immediate release of the five arrested accused persons.
In their statement presented before the court, the legal heirs clearly stated:
They have no objection to the acquittal of the accused
They have no objection to their discharge from the case
They have fully and unconditionally forgiven all the accused persons
Following the compromise, the court approved the settlement in the relevant case and directed that the five accused be released forthwith.
The heartbreaking incident occurred a few months ago in one of Lahore’s areas when a mother and her minor daughter fell into an uncovered manhole and both tragically drowned. The case had drawn widespread public outrage, leading to the registration of an FIR against the relevant officials, contractors, and others responsible for the negligence.
With the family’s forgiveness and the court’s approval of the compromise, the legal proceedings against the accused have now concluded, and all arrested individuals have been released.
