Now Parveen's husband Mohammad Iqbal, 45, has admitted killing his first wife.

"I was in love with Farzana and killed my first wife because of this love," adding that he had strangled her. (Husband of Pregnant Pakistani Woman Beaten to Death Demands Justice)

Iqbal said he was spared a prison term because his son - who alerted police to the murder - later forgave him under Pakistan's controversial blood-money laws.

After admitting to the murder he switched off his phone and did not respond to further calls.

Rights groups have expressed fears the same blood-money laws that spared Iqbal could be used to pardon Parveen's killers.
