Islamabad’s police chief Syed Ali Nasir Rizvi has confirmed that 17-year-old TikTok star Sana Yousaf was shot dead after continuously rejecting advances made by the main suspect, Kaka.
During a press conference, the inspector general stated the murder was driven by “a series of rejections.” He revealed that the accused had tried to approach Sana seven to eight times and even made multiple attempts to contact her on May 29—her birthday—including visiting her residence.
“The suspect was angry over being ignored. She had refused to talk to him or accept his proposals,” said IG Rizvi. He added that Sana was killed around 5 PM on June 2 by two gunshots. The murder weapon and her iPhone have since been recovered from Kaka’s possession.
Sana Yousaf was a well-known figure on social media, with over 800,000 followers on TikTok and nearly 500,000 on Instagram. Her content primarily featured lip-sync videos in Urdu, Hindi, and Pashto.
Tragically, her final posts—shared just hours before her death—showed her celebrating her birthday with friends at a local restaurant in Islamabad, cutting a cake and smiling on camera.
Her killing has sparked outrage online, with users demanding justice and better protection for women.
