Hon bröt mot alla oskrivna regler och lagar i det pakistanska samhället och avslöjade samtidigt männens hyckleri.
En natt mördades Qandeel Baloch, 26, av sin egen bror och en av Pakistans kritiker och största stjärnor på YouTube tystades.
It happened in July, amid the sweltering summer heat of the plains of Punjab, Pakistan’s largest province. It was one of those days when sweat flows in streams, the beads of depleted moisture dripping down backs and armpits and foreheads as people walk and talk and complain about the heat as if it were a newcomer among them.
The murdered woman was Qandeel Baloch, a 26-year-old Pakistani YouTube sensation, whose risqué videos, laden with erotic subtext, had so angered her brother that he strangled her to death. The deed was done late on the night of July 15th. It was late in the morning of the 16th when the first reporter from Pakistan’s rapacious 24-hour news media arrived in the neighborhood.
