Imran Khan

By Imran Khan in Asia on August 5th, 2010

Just a few hours outside of the capital Islamabad and deep into the Pakistani countryside I visit one village affected by the floods.

Risalabad village is its name and as I walk along the road I see several makeshift tents.

Suddenly, I am surrounded by homeless villagers.

My Western clothing marks me out, many wonder whether I have brought aid with me, others just look right at me, the pain evident in their eyes.

One man takes me from the makeshift village and into the heart of the destruction.

Zarwali Khan was at home when the rains began.
