KHALID GUL

Islamabad, Aug 14: Irshad Ahmad Latoo (35) son of late Abdul Gaffar Latoo was waiting for Iftaar (to break fast) outside his home when a bullet hit his chest.
“Although he was offered water by attendants near him Irshad refused saying that he is fasting and cannot break his fast before the stipulated time. Alas! He never heard the call for Iftaar and died just minutes before breaking the fast,” eyewitnesses told Greater Kashmir.
Irshad,an employee in Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution Department, according to his neighbours was toiling hard to get his both ends meet and got married 2 years back.He has a 9 month old baby.
 Though Irshad was himself orphaned at an early age but would have never even in his worst of dreams thought that his newly born baby would end with the same fate.
