Ex-PM Gilani’s nephew among those killed in Mina stampede

Former parliamentary secretary for religious affairs Syed Asad Murtaza Gilani was martyred in the Mina stampede on Thursday.

Asad Murtaza Gilani was the son of Sajjada Nasheen Hazrat Musa Pak shrine Makhdoom Wajahat Hussain Gilani and nephew of former prime minister Yousaf Raza Gilani.

Mustafa Gilani told reporters that his brother Asad’s mobile phone went unattended after the stampede. His friend Shahid, who was accompanying Asad Murtaza at the time, said Asad had fallen down during the stampede and was shifted to a hospital by Rescue officials. He was, later, pronounced dead by the officials.
