Pakistani actress Humaira Asghar found dead in Karachi apartment under mysterious circumstances

In a development from Pakistan’s entertainment world, popular television actress Humaira Asghar was found dead in her apartment located in the Ittehad Commercial area of Karachi’s Phase VI. The tragic discovery was made on Tuesday, July 8, sending ripples through the industry and among fans who remembered her for her work and on-screen presence.

According to initial reports, Humaira’s body was discovered after neighbors alerted the police due to a strong odor coming from her flat and no movement seen for several days. Officers arrived at the scene around 3 PM and were forced to break open the door when no one responded. Inside, they found the actress’s lifeless body, which was reportedly in an advanced stage of decomposition.

Deputy Inspector General Syed Asad Raza confirmed that early evidence suggests she may have passed away nearly two weeks ago, although the exact cause of death remains unclear. The police, as of now, are not ruling out natural causes but have emphasized that the matter is under thorough investigation.

Humaira, believed to be between 30 and 35 years old, had been living alone in her apartment for the past seven years. A well-known face in Pakistani television, she had worked in various dramas and shows over the years. While she wasn’t seen in many recent productions, she continued to be loved by loyal fans who admired her strong screen presence and acting depth.

Her body has been sent to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre where Dr. Summaiya Syed, who is overseeing the autopsy, noted the challenge in determining the cause of death due to the severe state of decomposition. Further forensic analysis will be required, and authorities have urged the public and media to refrain from speculation until results are confirmed. As investigations continue, fans and fellow artists have taken to social media to express their grief and condolences.
