Chicago police received information about Ahmed from Alpharetta officials, who also disclosed to them that he and his wife, Sania Khan, were divorcing. Officers responded to the building in the 200 block of East Ohio Street at around 4:30 p.m.
A single gunshot and “a vocal groan” were heard as the officers knocked on the door, according to the reports.
When the police entered, they discovered Ahmed in a bedroom with a head wound and found Khan lying near the entrance with an unconscious gunshot wound.
Khan was a photographer who focused on capturing images of happy couples and weddings. Khan pursued two majors in college: psychology and women’s studies, while concurrently starting her photography business.
Following her employment as a social worker, she changed careers to that of a flight attendant “to support herself becoming a traveling photographer” before dedicating her entire time to her chosen field.
Why Sania Khan Divorced With Raheel Ahmed?
Sania decided to file for divorce from her husband Ahmed as a result of the domestic abuse. In the winter of last year, she made the decision to split with her husband Ahmed.
The pandemic, which put everyone on lockdown and in isolation, may have put the couple’s marriage in jeopardy.
She moved to Chicago and continued her career after she was divorced from her ex-husband. Her friends are startled to learn that Khan has passed away. She was always known as a kind and diligent person who was praised by everyone.
Since she enjoyed traveling, she worked as a flight attendant for Spirit Airlines from 2019 to 2020. Later, she became comfortable with commercial photography and referred to herself as a creative businesswoman.
