London : A 28-year-old man has been charged with the murder of an Asian radio agony aunt who specialised in reuniting broken families.
Khalid Mamoun Sarwar, who appeared in court Monday, was charged with murdering Nasim Jamil and theft. The body of Jamil, 54, who worked on Asian community radio station Awaz FM, was discovered in her flat in the city of Glasgow by her daughter Dec 9.
Sarwar, who is from Glasgow, made no plea or declaration at Glasgow Sheriff Court and was remanded in custody.
Jamil, who was widowed and lived with her daughter, was brutally murdered, police said. Jamil’s show, ‘Yadoon Ke Phool’, dealt with a wide range of personal issues and problems.
Jamil wrote on the Awaz FM’s website: “When I joined the radio I wanted to do such a programme where I could reunite broken families. I set this as my main goal of my programme and managed to fulfill my dream.”
