The father of Qandeel Baloch has spoken out in support of his daughter, after she was killed by her brother, Pakistani media report.

"She supported all of us, including my son who killed her," Mohammad Azeem told reporters, according to Dawn newspaper.

Baloch's brother said he drugged and strangled her because she "dishonoured the family".

The controversial social media celebrity was buried on Sunday.

Baloch, 26, whose real name was Fauzia Azeem, gained notoriety for posting suggestive or outspoken photographs, comments and videos on social media. She recently caused controversy by posting pictures of herself alongside a Muslim cleric.

Her death has sparked a debate over "honour killings" and what is acceptable behaviour online for women in Pakistan.

Baloch, who was also a model and actress, was killed at her family home in Multan early on Saturday. Her 25-year-old brother Waseem was arrested and confessed to the murder.

He said he decided to kill her after she uploaded images of her posing with the Muslim cleric, which were widely shared online.

Baloch's funeral was held near her family home in Dera Ghazi Khan, about 130km from Multan. Media reports said thousands of people attended, including rights campaigners. She was buried at her ancestral graveyard.

Baloch's parents lodged a report with police accusing her brother of killing her, and another brother of being complicit, according to Dawn.

He said his sons were unhappy over "her achievements" and turned against her even though she supported them, the paper added.

The residents of her village also condemned the killing.
