Peel Regional Police on Tuesday released the name of a 16-year-old Mississauga teen who died after allegedly being attacked by her father.
Aqsa Parvez was found in her Longhorn Trail home on Monday morning without any vital signs.
Paramedics revived her and took her to Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children, where she died late Monday night.
Police said they received a call from a man who said he'd just killed his daughter.
The victim's father, Muhammad Parvez, 57, was arrested at the scene. He will appear in court on Tuesday and face murder charges.
Aqsa Parvez's friends told CBC News that the teen had been having arguments with her father because he allegedly wanted her to wear a traditional hijab.
"She kinda wanted to go a different way from the way her family wanted her to go," said one friend.
Waqas Parvez, the victim's 26-year-old brother, has also been arrested and charged with obstructing police.
