Marvia Malik told police that she was returning home from a pharmacy when two attackers opened indiscriminate fire. She claimed that she had been receiving threatening phone calls and messages from unknown numbers for raising her voice for the transgender community.

Ms Malik said she left Lahore out of fear for her life and relocated to Islamabad and Multan. She had returned to Lahore a few days back for a surgery.
