The murder of Fahmida Laghari demands justice.

Fahmeeda Laghari, a third-year medical student at Muhammad Medical College in Mirpurkhas, Pakistan, reportedly died by suicide, allegedly due to harassment from her teachers.

It criticizes the lack of safety for female students, condemning alleged "savage characters" within institutions who misuse their power, and calls for urgent action from the government and administration to ensure justice and prevent future tragedies.
