This guy is from my swat. Who saved 14 people in floods and when saving the next one, embraced shahaadat no doubt. By that time, the saudi govt offered his whole family the saudi nationality and also gave them 1 Million Saudi Riyal. Also his daughters' education free.
Back home village, he was such a brave guy, always used to go to the river and swim there and also was a Karate champion. But then went to Saudi Arabia for mazdoori and embraced shahaadat there.
The Saudi govt has named a Road with his name as "Farman Ali khan Road".
