(CNN) -- A popular female Pakistani singer who defied the Taliban's decree against singing and dancing was shot and killed in northwest Pakistan Monday night, police and hospital officials told CNN.
Authorities described the singer's ex-husband as a suspect in the case, and said early indications were that the Taliban were not involved, according to police official Imtiaz Altaf.
Ghazala Javed, who recorded scores of songs in her native Pashto language and became a household name among young, progressive ethnic Pashtuns in northwest Pakistan, had just left a beauty salon and was driving home with her father when gunmen on a motorcycle raced towards their car and sprayed it with bullets, Altaf said.
Javed was hit with six bullets and pronounced dead at a hospital in Peshawar, the capital of Pakistan's Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province, according to hospital official Rahim Afridi. Javed's father also was killed, police said.

Disgruntled ex-husbands or ex-boyfriends transcend religion and geography.
This is completely understandable.
Their ultra-inferior god, allah, must have made a mistake when it created this singer, so these 6th century sand monkeys were just fixing the devil allah’s mistake.
Its simple.
No one in the Middle East, especially places like Pakistan, Saudi, Yemen, are our friends.
Do not allow anyone from one of those countries into the USA, regardless of passport they are presently carrying.
Well said, they also claim how islam helped the sciences in the middle ages, yeah they freeking imprisoned one scientist who had a different and correct theory about how light worked....
What they did in europe to Galileo was like slap on the wrist compared to what they did to that one arab scientist.
The only good part of Islam taking over the world will be seeing the liberal women in burquas.
excellent point.
...and your art work, is good for a “where’s waldo” type game.
... how many Islamic “harams”, are in that photo?

true. but, in some countries killing your ex is the exception, and in some, it is the rule.
...an extra order of magnitude, is not equivalent.
(and, fear, is a real effective deterrant.
how many woman in Muslim countries, give up hopes and dreams, because of a real fear of violence and death?)
-
and this is not the first singer that has had problems in an Islamic country...
What a slut. (/sarc)
Such a peaceful and tolerant people. Let’s nuke them.
Answer: THE DEVIL. He hates everything that is good, even as he uses good (intelligence) to rebel against it, perverting every good thing into evil.
The god of Islam is Satan, people. It's obvious in every drive-by shooting like this.
Raise a new generation of males that respects their moms, sisters, and wives.
“...gunmen on a motorcycle raced towards their car and sprayed it with bullets...”
.
I don’t know...it sounds to me more like a hit by an organized group than by an angry husband. I suppose angry husbands can contract a hit on their wives to try and deflect suspicion from themselves, but I’m not sure how common an MO that is.
You think mothers should kill their 11-12 year old male sons en mass?
Two wrongs don’t make a right. You are truly sick.
RIP.
