People Perish wanting flour
Chaudhry Iftikhar wanted to help. He set up a site in Karachi to give flour to the people. He neglected to file the proper papers and get permission to do this. He is being held for his violation.
During the flour distribution, which took place on September 14th, 2009, the people rushed and pushed so hard to get their portion of the flour, that 18 people have now perished as a result of it. There were an additional 12 injured in the act. Two young children died in the accident.
Hundreds of people were awaiting the flour. Many of the people are currently homeless due to the battles going on in their tribes areas.
It is so sad that people are that hungry in our world where so much is wasted.
