SP Clifton Imran Jagirani to Lead High-Profile Probe into Mysterious Death of Actress Humaira Asghar
By Zeeshan Shah | July 13, 2025 | Karachi
In a significant development, the Sindh Police have constituted a high-level inquiry committee to investigate the mysterious and deeply unsettling death of Pakistani actress and model Humaira Asghar, whose decomposed body was discovered earlier this week in her Karachi apartment. The news has shocked fans and the entertainment industry, drawing widespread attention to the tragic and unusual circumstances of her death.
According to a notification issued on Saturday, the inquiry committee will be headed by SP Clifton Imran Mirza Jagirani and will include five other officials from different branches of the Karachi Police. The aim is to determine the cause and timeline of Humaira Asghar’s death and whether it was natural, accidental, a case of suicide, or involved foul play.
Tragic Discovery After Months of Silence
Humaira Asghar’s lifeless body was found on July 8, 2025, in her rented apartment in the Ittehad Commercial area of Defence Phase VI, Karachi. The apartment had been sealed off for rent default, and her death was only discovered when a court-appointed bailiff arrived to enforce an eviction notice. The owner of the flat had filed a case due to months of unpaid rent.
The bailiff was met with a disturbing and pungent odor. Upon forced entry, he discovered a heavily decomposed corpse lying in the apartment, which was later confirmed to be that of actress Humaira Asghar.
The body was reportedly in an advanced stage of decomposition, making it difficult at first to determine the cause of death.
Post-Mortem Confirms Death Occurred Months Ago
A post-mortem examination conducted by Police Surgeon Dr. Summaiya Syed revealed that the body was at least eight to ten months old at the time of discovery. The findings pointed toward no immediate signs of external trauma, though conclusive results regarding the cause of death are still pending forensic and toxicology reports.
According to Dr. Syed, such advanced decomposition typically masks certain signs that could indicate whether the death was violent or peaceful. However, the team has taken DNA samples, tissue remnants, and internal organ samples for further lab testing.
Formation of Special Inquiry Committee
The Sindh Police swiftly responded by setting up a six-member committee to investigate every possible angle of this high-profile case. The notification confirms that SP Clifton Imran Jagirani will supervise the inquiry.
Other members of the committee include:
-
SDPO Defence Aurangzeb Khattak
-
ASP Nida Junaid
-
SHO Gizri Muhammad Farooq
-
Sub-Inspector Muhammad Amjad
-
IT Branch Constable Muhammad Adeel
The team has been tasked with daily briefings to SSP South on the progress of the investigation. The aim is to collect all possible forensic, digital, and testimonial evidence to ascertain the real story behind Humaira’s demise.
Digital Breakthrough in the Case
In a major development, police recovered several electronic devices from the crime scene, including:
-
Three mobile phones
-
One tablet
-
One laptop
Investigators found a personal diary next to the deceased’s body, which surprisingly contained written passwords for all of her devices. Using these, the IT experts successfully accessed her digital world.
Police officials confirmed that the data recovered from these devices is currently being analyzed for communications, photos, location history, financial transactions, and any other activity that could help piece together the final months of her life.
A Mysterious Isolation
One of the most startling revelations is that Humaira Asghar had been living alone in that apartment for the past seven years. Police found very few items in the flat, and the overall condition of the place suggested a solitary and reclusive lifestyle.
Sources say that despite her public profile as a TV and film actress, Humaira kept a limited social circle, as reflected in her short contact list on all three mobile devices. No signs of recent visitors or activity were initially noted in the apartment.
Authorities believe she had not been in contact with many people, adding to the complexity of the investigation.
Statements and Interrogations Underway
So far, two individuals have recorded their official statements with the police. Two more have been summoned for questioning, while the inquiry team is reaching out to others in her inner circle.
Among those being questioned are:
-
Her gym trainer
-
A local beautician she used to visit
-
Neighbors and apartment staff
Police believe these people may help reconstruct a timeline of her last known appearances and behavior.
Financial Records and Bank Activity Reviewed
In an effort to leave no stone unturned, investigators have also begun reviewing Humaira’s bank accounts, credit card activity, and transaction history. Early analysis shows inconsistent patterns, but authorities have not released further details, pending confirmation.
Her bank accounts reportedly showed limited recent activity, consistent with the timeframe of her suspected death. No signs of large withdrawals or unusual transactions have been found as of now.
Public and Media Reactions
Humaira Asghar’s sudden and mysterious death has sent shockwaves across Pakistan. Fans and celebrities have taken to social media to express grief and demand justice. Many called her death a “national tragedy” and urged the authorities to ensure a thorough and unbiased investigation.
Several actors, including her co-stars from the popular reality show “Tamasha Ghar”, have shared emotional tributes, recalling her as a “gentle soul” and a “dedicated artist.”
The fact that her death remained undiscovered for nearly a year has also triggered debate about mental health, isolation, and the lack of community support in urban areas.
Link to Another Celebrity Death Raises Alarms
Adding to the mystery is the fact that Humaira Asghar’s death occurred less than three weeks after veteran actress Ayesha Khan was also found dead under similarly lonely conditions in her Gulshan-e-Iqbal apartment.
Ayesha Khan, aged 84, was discovered after neighbors complained about a foul smell coming from her residence. She too had been living alone.
While police say the two deaths are not connected, the timing has led to speculation and public discourse on the vulnerability of artists, especially women, living in isolation.

Career and Legacy
Humaira Asghar was best known for her participation in the reality show “Tamasha Ghar,” where she won hearts with her charismatic presence and strong personality. She later starred in the critically acclaimed film “Jalaibee,” which added to her popularity in the local entertainment industry.
Despite her growing fame, Humaira remained a private person, rarely giving interviews or appearing at public events. Colleagues describe her as “professional but reserved,” someone who was deeply focused on her craft but also battled personal demons.

As the investigation unfolds, several questions remain unanswered:
-
Why did no one check on her for nearly a year?
-
Was she battling mental health issues?
-
Did anyone visit her apartment during this time?
-
Were there any signs of substance abuse or poisoning?
With the inquiry team now actively piecing together evidence, it is expected that more witnesses will be interviewed and new leads pursued in the coming days.
Authorities have assured the public that no theory will be ruled out prematurely and that justice for Humaira Asghar will be ensured.
Conclusion
The tragic demise of actress Humaira Asghar is more than just another celebrity death—it is a chilling reflection of loneliness, neglect, and unanswered pain. As the Sindh Police’s special inquiry team led by SP Imran Jagirani dives deeper into the case, all of Pakistan waits for clarity and closure.
The entertainment industry mourns the loss of a rising star, and fans hope her soul finds peace, even as the truth behind her final moments slowly begins to emerge.
