This study attempted to determine how English newspapers of Pakistan give coverage about Honor Killing crime to escalate awareness among general public. This research adopted quantitative approach of content analysis for a period of five months from 1st July 2017 to 30th November, 2017. This study population comprised of 306 editions of Dawn and Express Tribune of Pakistan two most largely circulated English newspapers.
