Natasha who killed father and daughter in car accident belongs to a rich business family

KARACHI: Social media is buzzing with reports of a tragic road incident in Karachi’s Karsaz area on Monday, resulting in the deaths of two people and injuries to four others.

Initially, news reports identified the driver of the SUV involved in the incident as Natasha, but it was later revealed that she is the wife of Karachi businessman Danish Iqbal.

Natasha is a resident of KDA Scheme-I, located near Karsaz Road. Danish Iqbal is the chairman and CEO of Metro Power Group, an independent power producer with ventures in biofilm, glass, power, and property. According to the Metro Power Group’s website, Natasha Iqbal is also listed as a member of the board of directors alongside her husband.

During a court appearance on Tuesday, Natasha’s lawyer, Amir Mansoob, informed the special magistrate that his client is a “psychiatric patient” and has been on medication for the past five years. He also claimed that Natasha sustained a head injury during the accident and has no recollection of the event.

The lawyer further stated that Natasha had taken the vehicle out of her house without permission. Meanwhile, Investigation Officer Amir Altaf confirmed that Natasha possesses a valid driving license, although it was issued in the United Kingdom, not Pakistan.

Natasha’s husband, who arrived at the police station shortly after her arrest, told Geo News that she has been taking “medication for mental stress.”

As of now, Natasha has not been granted bail due to her non-appearance in court. Following an examination by psychiatric specialist Chunni Laal at JPMC hospital, she was admitted for further evaluation.
