Pakistan: Norwegian national goes missing in Punjab
A Norwegian national of Pakistani origin has gone missing in Punjab province, media reports said on Thursday.
He has been missing for more than a week now.
On Sept 26, Shahzad Ahmed Bhatti, of Deona Mandi, reported to the Rehmania police that his nephew, Arfan Qadeer Bhatti, went to drop off his children at school. He afterwards texted Bhatti to pick up the children from school and drop them off at home, Dawn News reported.
Bhatti did so, but when he called Arfan, he did not reply. He stated that Arfan came to Gujrat with his three children in June, while his siblings and mother remained in Norway.
They assumed Arfan had fled elsewhere in order to avoid his arrest in connection with a terror case in Norway, reports Dawn News.
On Sept 24, Norwegian police filed international arrest warrants for Arfan in connection with a gunshot at a homosexual pub in Oslo in June of this year. One suspect has already been arrested.
