KARACHI: Abdul Wali Khan University Mardan lecturer and Mashal Khan’s teacher Ziaullah Hamdard apologised to the nation and deceased’s parents for failing to save the student from the violent mob.

“They [mob] were in front of me yet I was not able to do anything. I haven’t been able to sleep since the past four days,” he said. Ziaullah’s public apology was made during Geo News’s show Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Saath on Monday.

“Mashal was a humanist, he was into socialism and Sufism. He would often discuss Sufism with me,” remarked the teacher. “I never saw Mashal without a book in his hand.” He was well-versed in different languages and striking a conversation with him always proved to be fruitful. Ziaullah also said Mashal was his student, friend and son.
