Karachi.

with Karachi Port Trust (KPT) for most of his
life. Towards the end of his life, he was Director
for the Dock Workers Safety at KPT.
He was also very
closely affiliated to the Pakistan People's Party.
He was close to Benazir Bhutto and was among the
people who were involved to bring her back to
Pakistan in 1987.
He was a very active
member of the
Petarian Association and was a member of its
Managing Committee for four years. He was in the
forefront of organizing events.
Sultan Afridi met
with a violent death. He was shot dead at his
home. To this date the assailants are unknown. In
a possible cover up, it has also been suggested
that he committed suicide. The truth of the matter
will probably never be known.
May Allah
have mercy on him and grant him Jannatul Firdaus.
