Asma Khala on her youngest brothers wedding
My Aunt Asma Moid widow of Mr. Moid Uddin was the sole bread winner of her family, who raised her 4 children alone in Wah Cantt while working full time as a teacher and eventually as Principal of the school. The kids depended entirely on her salary for their living. Asma Khalas youngest daughter is severely disabled by birth, she is unable to speak and comprehend but the bare minimum, however does make some rudimentary sounds. At the time of Khalas murder she was 8 years old. Asma Khala was her sole carer, and her speech therapy stopped with Khalas death. She is now over 20 years old and still unable to speak. I have just realized I do not have a picture of her, in fact I don’t think her picture has ever been taken by anyone, as she is pretty much house bound.

Mrs. Asma Moid was Principal of School No.2 Wah Cantt when she was brutally murdered by Iftikhar Uddin. The young students of the entire school were shocked to learn of their Principals murder, for them this was ‘Madam Asma’, their Principal; they remember her till this day.
