A two-year-old missing child from Karachi’s Shah Latif Town was discovered in a sewer 15 hours later on Wednesday.
The boy, Zohan, was found in a semi-conscious state, exposed to severe mosquito bites while he was stuck in the sewer.
According to Zohan’s father, Sadaqat Khan, the boy went missing on Saturday.
He had been searching for Zohan with the help of his relatives, neighbors and local residents around the premises including Zafar Town and Gaddafi Town.
They even made announcements in mosques but Zohan was nowhere to be found.
They went through the CCTV footage from the location where Zohan disappeared which revealed that Zohan was with a nine-year-old child named Abdullah at the time of his disappearance.
According to the father, Abdullah was visiting someone in the neighbourhood as a guest from Gulshan-e-Maymar.
Abdullah’s maternal uncle interrogated him till he revealed that Abdullah had pushed Zohan into a sewer.
Everyone hurried to the sewer where Zohan was found in a semi-conscious state.
Khan described that the sewer had no water but a lot of filth was present inside.
