Case History


Hamid has been hailed as a hero by his students. As Zahoor Ahmed, a student of geology, told AFP, when he heard the first gunshots, Hamid told him not to leave the building. Ahmed continued to describe the following: “[Dr Hamid] was holding a pistol in his hand. Then I saw a bullet hit him. I saw two militants were firing. I ran inside and then managed to flee by jumping over the back wall.”
