Tragedy at Gadani Beach: Father Drowns While Trying to Save His Son

Kareem Shah, a resident of Karachi’s Banaras Kati Pahari area, had taken his family to the beach when his 12-year-old son, Ubaid, was caught in strong waves while swimming. In an effort to save him, Kareem jumped in, but both father and son were pulled under by the rough sea.

Lifeguards from the Gadani Municipal Committee used a boat to recover their bodies and shifted them to the Sheikhabad Rural Health Centre for necessary procedures. According to locals, Kareem Shah lived in a rented house and was known as a caring and devoted father.

In another incident, near Bund Road’s T Number 5 area in Lahore, three boys drowned in the Ravi River. According to police, all three bodies were retrieved and later confirmed dead by doctors. The victims were identified as 6-year-old Naseebullah, seven-year-old Ameer Hamza, and nine-year-old Qudratullah.
