[h=1]Crown Prince honors a Pakistani for rescuing a citizen[/h]
JEDDAH – Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Naif, deputy premier and interior minister, has instructed the honoring of Shawkat Ali Amin, a Pakistani expatriate, as a token of appreciation for his humanitarian and gallant work risking his own life to save the life of a Saudi citizen who got tangled in the floods.
Shawkat defied the torrential floodwater to save the life of Al-Qahtani, a Saudi citizen, who was about to drown in Tathleet valley in Asir region.
The Prince ordered a feasible financial reward for the Pakistani expatriate for his heroic work in saving a life of a Saudi man.
Al-Qahtani climbed to the top of his car when the floods besieged him. Shawkat, who was standing nearby, lost no time in joining hands with the Civil Defense teams to put the life vest around Qahtani’s body and pulled him out to safety.
Shawkat expressed thanks and appreciation for the noble gesture of the Crown Prince but said what he did was just an expression of love for this country and its people.
