The funeral of Shahid Akhtar, the elder brother of former Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar, has come under scrutiny after several individuals linked to the Pakistan-based terrorist organisation Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) were reportedly seen attending the ceremony in Islamabad.
Shahid Akhtar passed away on June 24 and was buried at Islamabad's H-8 graveyard. Videos shared on social media allegedly show Lashkar-e-Taiba deputy chief Saifullah Kasuri among those present during the funeral prayers. The footage has sparked discussion over the public presence of members associated with banned terrorist groups in Pakistan.
