MANSEHRA: The death of an eighth grader here on Wednesday was shrouded in mystery as his family disputed the school’s claim that the 13-year-old passed away naturally.
As of right now, it would be premature to speculate about the cause of death, according to a physician at the King Abdullah Teaching Hospital.
He said to reporters, “We’re doing medico-legal procedures on the body and will share the outcomes with police only after receiving the lab report.”
Ali Shahzad, an eighth-grader at the Ghazikot campus of Tameer-i-Watan Public School and College, was sent to the Kath in critical condition. Not long after, he passed away.
The deceased student’s uncle, Sajid Mehmood, filed a formal complaint with the City Police Station, believing that the school’s management was “involved” in the student’s death.
But he offered no explanation for it.
The father of the dead worked in Dubai, according to the authorities.
The school posted on Facebook to offer condolences for the student’s passing. It stated that Ali Shahzad had shown symptoms of anxiety during recess and had fainted in the restroom, where he sustained serious injuries.
The boy was taken to the King Abdullah Teaching Hospital immediately after, but he did not make it.
According to Mohammad Amjad, a police official in charge of the reporting room at Kath, the police filed a report and initiated an inquiry to determine the precise reason for the death.
He stated, “We are obtaining circumstantial evidence, waiting for the postmortem report, and recording statements from the deceased’s family and the school administration regarding the death.”
He stated that after the medico-legal procedures were finished by the Kath doctors, the police turned the body over to the family.
