Asim Jamil, the son of renowned Islamic scholar Maulana Tariq Jamil, passed away on October 29, 2023, in Punjabs Talamba. Initially, there were claims of an assassination, but Tariq Jamil later clarified on social media that it was an ‘accidental death’ . Maulana Yousaf Jamil, Asims elder brother, revealed that Asim had been struggling with severe depression since childhood and was undergoing electric shock therapy as part of his treatment. Despite continuous efforts to support Asim, his mental health had deteriorated over the last six months. Maulana Yousaf Jamil further explained that his brother had taken his own life by seizing a gun from a security guard while he was alone at home on Sunday. There was no indication of any enmity leading to his brother’s passing. CCTV footage showed Asim shooting himself in the chest while in the gymnasium at the time of his passing. The cause of death appeared to be a gunshot, and the police had acquired CCTV footage of the incident.
