Pakistani actress and model Humaira Asghar Ali was found dead in her Karachi apartment in the Defence Phase 6 area on July 8, 2025. Authorities discovered her body in an advanced state of decomposition, with investigations indicating she may have died approximately eight to ten months prior, around October 2024. The discovery was made after the landlord, who had stopped receiving rent, broke into the locked flat. Humaira Asghar was known for her appearances on ARY's reality TV show "Tamasha" and the 2015 film "Jalaibee." Initial post-mortem reports have been completed, but the exact cause of death remains undetermined, prompting an ongoing investigation that has expanded to include the assistance of Pakistan's Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD). The police also found a mysterious white powder in the flat during the probe. Humaira's family initially refused to claim her body, stating they had cut ties, but later her brother and other relatives arrived in Karachi to take possession of the remains. The actress was subsequently buried in Lahore. The case has reached the courts, where a citizen has filed a complaint alleging murder. Police continue to gather evidence and interview neighbors to understand why her death went unnoticed for months. The investigation remains active with new developments emerging as authorities seek to determine the circumstances surrounding her death.
