ISLAMABAD: A former Pakistani beauty queen lost her life in a tragic road accident earlier this month after her car hit a curb and flipped over into oncoming traffic in Maryland.
Zanib Naveed, 32, was born in the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore but lived in Pomona, New York. She was crowned Miss Pakistan World in 2012 in Toronto, Canada.
According to The Washington Post, the accident took place on December 2 at “11:40 p.m. on the ICC, also known as Route 200, near Route 1 in the College Park area.”
Naveed, who was driving a 2018 Mercedes-Benz CL2, was the only person in the vehicle. She was “ejected in the crash” and “pronounced dead at the scene.”
She attended Pace University in New York City.
Her friends created a GoFundMe page after her tragic death to help the bereaved family.
“She had a smile that could light up a room, a powerful personality, captivating eyes, a voice that demanded attention and beauty like no other,” read the inscription on the page.
