Mohammad Gohar is being treated at Ben Taub General Hospital.

A 47-year-old father worried that he would never see his three children again was charged in their deaths on Sunday, accused of fatally shooting his son and two daughters as they slept in his north Harris County apartment.

Mohammad Goher then turned the gun on himself, firing into his mouth. Authorities found him unconscious and transported him in stable condition to Ben Taub General Hospital.

He was charged with capital murder Sunday afternoon.

Goher had threatened to kill or hurt himself if he lost visitation, said Houston attorney Syed Izfar, who was appointed by a court to represent Goher's three children in a Sept. 24 divorce mediation.

"By all appearances, this was a man who loved his children. What a nightmare," said Izfar, who planned to recommend standard visitation in the case. "He had it in his mind that the children would be taken away from him forever."

While there was a history of violence against the mother — including a 2006 conviction against Goher for beating her — Izfar said he was unaware of the father ever harming 14-year-old Saeedah, 12-year-old Saeed or 7-year-old Aisha.

The family had lived together in a tiny apartment adjacent to a worn-down convenience store where Goher worked in the 13000 block of Homestead until divorce proceedings began last year.

Weekend visits

Since then, the children typically visited Goher on weekends and lived with their mother at a north Harris County shelter for battered women, said Harris County Homicide Sgt. Ben Beall.

The night before the killings, Goher called co-worker Muhommad Riaz distraught that he would lose all custody rights at the coming mediation and never see his children.

"He was very stressed," said Riaz, who was stunned to learn of the killings when he reported to work Sunday afternoon.

"We talked for an hour. He said, 'Everybody is lying and saying I'm a bad guy,' " Riaz said.

Around 9 a.m. Sunday, while the children and an older family friend visiting from Pakistan were sleeping, Goher got out a handgun, authorities said. Beall said he shot one of his girls sleeping in a bedroom and shot his other daughter and son sleeping in a king-size bed in a front room.

He then crawled onto the bed and shot himself, Beall said.

Neighbor called 911

The gunfire woke the family friend, who speaks little English. She saw the bloodied bodies and ran outside for help.

Neighbor Julio Rodriguez was cutting his grass across the street when another neighbor whistled at him loudly, alerting him to the scene.

He looked over at the store and saw a woman in the store parking lot, frantically waving her arms in the air and screaming loudly.

"She was hysterical," Rodriguez said. "I heard her screaming, 'Gun! Gun! Shoot! Shoot!' I got scared because I knew there were kids in there."

Rodriguez then called 911, and patrolmen arrived moments later to find the children dead.

Detectives' grim duty

Harris County homicide detectives went to the shelter Sunday afternoon to tell the mother her three children had been killed.

She was inconsolable, Beall said.

Neighbors who frequented the store knew little about the family, saying the children were extremely quiet and spent most time indoors.

"We would never see them outside or playing like normal kids," said 14-year-old Mercedes Sanchez, who attended middle school with one of the girls.

Attorney Ifzar recalled the children as normal and happy but struggling with the divorce.

"They wanted their parents to stay together," he said.
