model, actress, feminist activist and social media celebrity. Baloch rose to
prominence due to her videos on social networks discussing her daily routine and
various controversial issues.She was famous for her sensational videos on
social media.
Baloch first received
recognition from the media in 2013, when she auditioned for Pakistan Idol; her
audition went viral and she became an Internet celebrity.She was one of the top
10 most searched for persons on the internet in Pakistan and both celebrated
and criticised for the content of her videos and posts.
During the evening of
15 July 2016, Baloch was asphyxiated while she was asleep in the house where
her parents live in Multan.Her brother Waseem Azeem confessed to the murder

honour".
Baloch was born on 1
March 1990 in Dera Ghazi Khan, Punjab. She hailed from Shah Sadar Din.She had
six brothers and six sisters. Her first job was as a bus hostess.
Baloch's fame was based
on her social media posts – pictures, videos and comments. These were
considered bold by the largely conservative Pakistani community.Some
international news media compared her to Kim Kardashian;however, local
commentators stated that she was more significant than Kardashian, as Baloch
"went against the norms of society" and lived life on her own terms.
In June 2016, Baloch
met senior cleric Mufti Abdul Qawi in a hotel room to learn more about her
faith; the interaction between them brought about mayhem on social media
platforms as their photos went viral online.She also wore a hat with the
Mufti's signature.The meeting led to the Mufti being suspended from his
position on one of Pakistan's religious committees.
A previous stunt which
spread in social media was her promise to strip dance for her nation and to
dedicate her dance to cricketer Shahid Afridi if Pakistan won the Twenty20
match against India on 19 March 2016. She released a teaser on social media,
which went viral, but Pakistan lost the match.Some Indian media compared her
with Poonam Pandey at this point due to her controversial personality.
Following the June 2016
meeting with Qawi, Baloch reported that she received death threats both from
him and from others.
Baloch married Ashiq
Hussain in 2008, aged 17, and had one son with him.Baloch left her husband a
year later, saying he was abusive.There are reports Baloch was separated from a
second marriage.

was drugged and then asphyxiated by her brother Waseem while she was asleep at
her parents' home in Multan.Her death was reported by her father Azeem.It was
first reported as a shooting, but an autopsy report confirmed that Baloch was
murdered by asphyxiation while she was asleep,on the night of 15–16 July,
around 11:15 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. By the time her body was found she had already
been dead for between fifteen and thirty-six hours.Marks on Baloch's body
revealed that her mouth and nose were pinned shut to asphyxiate her.Police said
that they would investigate all sides of the murder including honour killing.
The state was named as

pardon the perpetrator.
Mufti Abdul Qavi's name
has been mentioned in First Information Report (FIR) in an application of
Qandeel's father Azeem.He was already being investigated by the Multan police
at the time of murder.

unless we literally say there will be no more killing and those who dare will
spend the rest of their lives behind bars."She further said, "There
is not a single day where you don't pick up a paper and see a woman hasn't been
killed... this is an epidemic."
