LAHORE, Pakistan — The wife of a Pakistani man shot and killed by a U.S. official committed suicide by eating rat poison Sunday, explaining before she died that she was driven to act by fears that the American would be freed without trial, a doctor said.
The U.S. has demanded that authorities release the American, Raymond Davis, saying the two armed men he shot attempted to rob him. He was arrested on Jan. 27, and the U.S. has said he has diplomatic immunity.
Davis and his wife are renting a home in Highlands Ranch.
The shootings have stoked anti-American sentiment in Pakistan, feelings that could be further inflamed by Shumaila Kanwal’s suicide.
