Sana Yusef was only 17. She was bright, bold, and like many girls her age, she had dreams. Big ones. She was already a star on TikTok, with nearly a million followers who loved her lip-syncs, her fashion, and the joy she radiated on screen.
And then, just like that, she was gone.
Murdered in her own home in Islamabad. Shot twice. Her phone stolen. Her life stolen.
The man who killed her? A 22-year-old named Umar Hayatt — someone who, according to police, couldn’t take no for an answer.
What happened?
On a day that should’ve been like any other, Hayatt allegedly broke into Sana’s home. Authorities say he’d been obsessed with her for some time. She had rejected him — more than once. And for that, he decided she had to die.
He pulled the trigger. Twice. Sana died on the spot. She never made it to the hospital. Her father, heartbroken and blindsided, said the family didn’t even know who Hayatt was.
Who was Sana?
Not just a TikToker. Her father says she wanted to become a doctor — someone who helped people. She was brave. She worked hard. She wasn’t just creating videos; she was building a future.
