Pakistan to award 'courage' of citizen killed in Christchurch.
A Pakistani victim of the Christchurch attack who apparently tried to tackle the gunman before being shot dead will be awarded posthumously in his home country for his courage, Prime Minister Imran Khan said Sunday.
Pakistan has several awards to recognise civilian bravery, and Khan did not specify which one would be awarded to Rashid, whose son also died in the massacre. He confirmed that nine Pakistani citizens had been killed in the attack while one was in critical condition.
