An Islamabad sessions court sentenced Umar Hayat to death for the 2025 murder of 17-year-old TikTok influencer Sana Yousaf. The detailed court order rejected all claims of leniency, citing "overwhelming evidence," including judicial confessions, forensic fingerprint matches, and eyewitness testimony. Hayat, who initially confessed to an obsession-driven killing before retracting his statement, was also ordered to pay Rs2.5 million in compensation. While the convict maintains his innocence, the court established his guilt through corroborating medical and digital forensic proof. The death sentence is now subject to confirmation by the Islamabad High Court.
