A two-year-old boy was miraculously found alive from a gutter in Karachi’s Shah Latif Town 12 hours after he went missing.

The child, named Muhammad Zohan, went missing on September 9, according to his father Sadaqat Khan.

After searching in vain for some time, the father found CCTV footage of his son moments before he disappeared.

Sadaqat said that the footage showed a young boy named Abdullah leading Zohan by his hand. However, the footage did not show what became of them.

After the video emerged, Abdullah was asked about it by his uncle. The boy then confessed that he had pushed Zohan into a gutter. However, it has still not been revealed why Abdullah did what he did.

Khan said that mosquitoes and insects had had a serious effect on Zohan’s condition.

However, he said that he did not want to pursue the case and had forgiven Abdullah. He also thanked Shah Latif Town’s police and residents of the area for their help.
