While speaking about his ordeal, Wasim was seen breaking down into tears. When the interviewer asked him about how he broke the news of Huma’s death to his kids, the emotional cricketer stated:

“My kids were 7 and 10, and I was a typical Pakistani dude. I knew they are my boys and I have to love them but didn't know much about them. It was tough, a lot of people helped me afterwards. They were with Huma's friend who is also named Huma. They were with her for 3 days before I called them home. But they didn't understand what happened, they were too young.”
