Kinnaird College Mourns the Tragic Loss of Two Beloved Students

Lahore, April 29, 2025 — Kinnaird College for Women expresses profound sorrow and mourns the very tragic and untimely passing of two of its cherished students, Aida Faheem and Eman Rauf.

Earlier this morning, at approximately 7:50 AM, Ayda Faheem suffered a tragic fall from a balcony after reportedly feeling dizzy. The college administration responded immediately, contacting emergency services within two minutes. Rescue 1122 arrived on the scene within ten minutes and transported Ayda to the nearest medico-legal hospital, accompanied by senior management and college staff. Despite all efforts, she was pronounced deceased. All medical and legal formalities were adopted as per standard protocol. Local authorities have completely reviewed the incident site, which remained preserved for formal investigation.

In a separate heartbreaking incident, Eman Rauf, who had sustained critical burn injuries at her home last Thursday, also passed away this morning.

The entire Kinnaird community is deeply shaken by the loss of these two exceptional young women. Both Aida and Eman were bright, compassionate, and deeply loved members of our student body. Their absence leaves a void that can never truly be filled.

Kinnaird College extends its heartfelt condolences to the bereaved parents, families and friends of Ayda Faheem and Eman Rauf. We stand in solidarity with them during this time of unimaginable grief and pray for strength and peace for all suffering their loss.

We also recognize and appreciate the Management, Faculty, Staff, and Students who responded with compassion and integrity in these tragic moments. Their support, discretion, and unity reflect the core values that define the Kinnaird family.
