SARGODHA: Ejaz Ahmad, one of the tallest men in Pakistan with eight feet and two inches height, died in Darya Khan area in Bhakkar district on Thursday. He was 42.
Ejaz Ahmad was suffering from multiple diseases, including kidney and bone disorder, due to lack of access to proper healthcare and food, mainly because of extreme poverty. He broke his pelvic bone in a road accident some time ago and was bedridden since then in Thalla Sareen, a remote area of Darya Khan.
Family claimed that Ejaz was one inch taller than Alam Channa but could not get any financial help from government.
