Nazia had one of her ovaries removed following an ovarian cancer diagnosis; she was in remission when she returned to her husband but soon developed throat cancer, which perplexed her doctor, he added.
Additionally, the acclaimed guitarist stated that his sister was so fed up with Baig’s mistreatment that she filed for divorce before her death.
