His father was killed by an infamous murderer in Karachi, while his accomplice in the police was killed by the Taliban.
The individual disaster is frequenting books with bubbles that turn leading police officer Omar Shahid Hamid into one of Pakistan's most famous English writers.
For about two decades, Hamid has made an identification in Karachi, the largest port city in the Arabian Sea that has long been peopled with horrific political and fanatical savages.
He is currently the Deputy General Examiner and is quickly becoming one of Pakistan's most indisputable scholars, distributing four books continuously since 2013.
His work even took into account real outings in search of new unique materials from South Asia, including Netflix, which has just seen significant achievements with comparative material for television, such as Sacred Games, on the Internet. degenerate black market. from Mumbai.
Hamid said the key to his prosperity lies in his brave exploits of political corruption, testamentary executions and abnormal policemen, near nuanced photos of divided Karachi neighborhoods.
"Books like mine would not work if there was a blow," he told AFP.
"It is this irregularity, this uncompromising reality that readers value a lot."
Sometimes the truth has hit dangerously and tragically.
Hamid did the work of composition on vacation, after being encouraged to leave Karachi and enjoy a break from the police in 2011, weakened by militant meetings.
Near the real world
A few weeks after the arrival of his first novel "The Prisoner", his coach and police accomplice, Chaudhry Aslam, motivated by one of the book's heroes, was killed in a Taliban-guaranteed suicide bombing.
In his third novel, "The Party Worker," Hamid describes the rise of a hard-hitting man executed under the command of an anecdotal ideological group that controlled the city with an iron fist.
For the Karachi initiates, the character reflects the life of the dreaded murderer Saulat Mirza, who has become the feared authority of the once-unbelievable Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) party and whose summary of unfortunate losses includes the father himself. from Hamid, Shahid.
