Family's sorrow for Afghan Tube victim
By Andrew North
BBC News in Mazar-i-Sharif
Fahim's brother saw the UK as his only chance for a better life
Atique Sharif from Afghanistan moved to London to escape the violence of the Taleban regime.
Instead he became one of the victims of the Russell Square Tube bomb on 7 July. BBC News spoke to his brother in Afghanistan about the family's tragic loss.
"I always kept in touch with my brother. On 7th July, when the bombings happened in London, straight away I tried to call him, but the mobile said 'the mobile is switched off'."
He'd fled to London to escape Taleban and al-Qaeda-controlled Afghanistan, hoping for a new life.
Instead, Atique died in one of the suicide attacks on the London Underground.
Escape abroad
The Taleban had killed his father in the late 1990s. His mother died soon afterwards, of a heart attack.
***********
A truly tragic tale his father murdered then he comes all the way to the uk
to escapes the loony taliban and he is a victim of a muslim suicide bombers
If there is any comfort to be had by this tale it is that he is reunited with his parents
Rest in peace my friend you sought a peaceful life 1st your parents are taken from you then madmen take your life too
You never new peace in your life i truly hope you are at peace now with god
and i hope the uk if his family desires will fly his body out for free
