ISLAMABAD:


A 28-year-old Saudi Arabian national was found dead on Saturday here in the jurisdiction of the Aabpara Police Station, a police official said.



The deceased was identified as Fawad al Mishan, a foreign cadet at the prestigious Pakistan Military Academy Kakul in  the garrison city of Abbottabad.


The police said that the deceased had come down to Islamabad to meet a friend and was staying at a guest house in Sector G-7.


His body was recovered by the police on Saturday evening. The victim’s body was shifted to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences for post-mortem, and further investigation is under way . The investigation officer for the case told The Express Tribune that it is premature to say whether he died of natural causes or if it was a suicide.


A post-mortem has not been preformed yet because permission had not been granted by the Saudi embassy or the deceased’s family till the time this story was filed.
