A video circulating on social media captured the horrifying event, showing a cow running with the boy entangled in its rope, while onlookers desperately pursued the animal.
Authorities reported that Ibrahim, a 12-year-old resident of New Karachi’s Sector 11-G, tragically met his demise while taking the cow for a walk. As the boy tried to free himself, the rope became entangled around his legs, leading to the animal pulling him over a kilometer and causing severe injuries.
Witnesses recounted the incident, explaining that people from the nearby area swiftly reacted, chasing after the animal in a bid to rescue the child. However, it took a significant distance before they were able to intervene and release the boy from the rope.
The injured child was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, but unfortunately, his injuries were too severe, and he could not survive.
Ibrahim, the second of four siblings, was known for his innocent and playful nature. His father works at a cloth shop, adding to the heartbreaking loss experienced by the family and the community.
