After Getting New Life at FMIC- Khal Mohammad says
“Do not Play with fire at all”
Khal
Mohammad (13) hails from a village in Sar-e-Pol province,
Afghanistan. He was studying in grade 7th with brilliance in all
subjects. Meanwhile, this little boy was curious to see how petrol
catches fire. In early 2019, he somehow got hold of a 3-littre
bottle of petrol and tried to ignite it with matches. Suddenly the
flames captured him allover and the right side of his body got
burnt and put him in critical condition. The scorches on his body
made his life miserable and he needed emergency care. He lost
movement completely since the muscles were damaged due to “Grade 3
burns.”
