Iqbal’s case came into the limelight in 1999 when he wrote a letter to a local newspaper and to the police confessing the rape and murder of 100 runaway boys.
He wrote in the letter that he used to strangle and dismember the victims and disposed of their bodies in acid.
The police launched a historic manhunt for Iqbal but he remained in hiding.
Sometime later, he showed up at the office of Daily Jang on December 30, 1999, and the police arrested him.
Javed Iqbal was sentenced to death in the same manner as he used to kill the children but before the execution, he committed suicide in the prison.
