In a shocking new development, Karachi police have uncovered mysterious white powder during a forensic search of the apartment belonging to late model and actress Humaira Asghar, who was found dead earlier this month. The latest revelation has added a new layer of mystery to an already puzzling case that has gripped the public.
Timeline of the Discovery
On July 8, 2025, Gizri Police, along with a court bailiff, forcibly entered Humaira’s flat on the fourth floor of a building in Ittehad Commercial Area, DHA Karachi, to enforce an eviction notice. The action came after the landlord filed a case due to unpaid rent since April 2024.
Neighbors had long reported a foul odor, but the presence of an unoccupied flat next door, which remained empty until February 2025, may have delayed the detection of the actress’s death.
White Powder Discovery: What Police Found
According to official police statements:
- Three to four clay vessels were discovered containing an unidentified white powder.
- The samples were immediately sent for chemical testing.
- Police are unsure about the powder’s purpose or whether it has any toxicological relevance to Humaira’s death.
Authorities also suggested the unusual odor near the body might have been caused by this mysterious substance.
“Only a detailed chemical examination will confirm the nature of the white powder,” investigators stated.
No Traces of Poisoning Found Earlier
A preliminary investigation previously ruled out poisoning. However, the presence of the unknown powder has led police to reconsider possible scenarios, including drug use, preservation substances, or even unorthodox herbal remedies.
