ISLAMABAD: A 14-year-old British boy has been 'murdered' while on holiday in Pakistan with his mum, British media widely reported on Monday.
Adil Khan, 14, from Bradford, West Yorkshire, was reportedly shot dead while traveling with his mother to visit relatives.
“Though the nature of his death has not yet been confirmed, police are said to have made two arrests,” the Daily Mail said. “The 14-year-old, from the predominantly Asian Manningham area of Bradford, was previously at the centre of a missing persons inquiry in Pakistan in 2019 but was found safe and well.”
Khan's passing was reported on Sunday by the Janaza Announcements Facebook group.
“Tragedy as Bradford boy, 14, is ' Brutally Murdered' on holiday abroad,” the post said.
“He was shot by his two friends and left him in the ditch to die,” Facebook user Amirun Ahmed committed under the post.
"He's my mums neighbour, whenever I came down to my mums he used to knock on the door n chat with me, gonna miss him dearly n hope they punish his so called friends that shot him.”
The communications section at the British High Commission and the foreign office in Islamabad both said they had no information regarding the killing.
