According to a report, Ijaz, who is serving a lifetime imprisonment sentence on kidnapping-for-ransom charges, has achieved this remarkable feat.
The amazing story of mother-son love
Ijaz, an inmate in Karachi’s central jail, honed his artistic skills while behind bars and utilized his newfound talent to support his family. He painstakingly created a series of artworks during his time in confinement, which he eventually sold for a staggering sum of Rs 1.3 million at the Art and Craft Exhibition organized by the prison authorities of the Arts Council of Pakistan.
What makes Ijaz’s story even more heartwarming is the purpose behind his artistic endeavor. He expressed that the proceeds from the sale of his artwork would be directed towards his sister’s marriage finances and, most notably, fulfilling his mother’s long-cherished dream of performing Umrah.
