WASHINGTON - US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has responded over the horrible death of the Pakistani student Sabika Sheikh in Texas school shooting.
He has offered his condolences, saying that "Sabika's death and that of the other victims is heartbreaking and will be mourned deeply both here in the United States, and in Pakistan."
Abdul Aziz, father of slain Sabika Sheikh who was killed in Sante Fe School shooting, has said that one shouldn’t refrain from accessing quality education in deterrence from such assailants.
"One should not lose his heart by such kind of incidents," Sheikh said. "One should not stop going for education to the US or UK or China, or anywhere. One must go for education undeterred. But controlling such incidents is the responsibility of the respective governments."
Speaking to media in his Karachi-based residence, Aziz said these events must not hold potential to deter students from achieving their goals. Sabika, the eldest of his four children, was a hard-working person but even now that she’s gone, I would not desist sending my children from studying abroad.
