Officials from the Omarzai police station revealed that the woman’s son had discharged a firearm into the air in celebration of his success in the grade four examination results. Unfortunately, one of the bullets struck his mother, resulting in her immediate death.
Mirza Khan, the father of the young schoolboy, recounted to the police that his son had returned home and, in a gesture of celebration, began firing a pistol to mark his achievement in the annual grade four examination. Tragically, amidst the celebratory gunfire, his wife was struck by a bullet and sustained fatal injuries. Despite being rushed to the hospital in critical condition, she succumbed to her injuries.

Amid sorrow, there is a collective hope for justice and for measures to prevent similar tragedies from occurring in the future.
What sort of justice are the community members hoping for? The child was given a gun by someone and was doing what he has seen adults do.
