According to these reports, the attack took place in Sargodha, Pakistan after Qandeel Cheema, 19, convinced Masih to trim his beard — which the barber initially refused. Cheema assured him the was leaving to study in Lahore and wanted a more modern look — promising that he would be leaving immediately.
