According to GNN, both were filming the video at a dangerous spot near the Bhikki canal when they fell into the fast-flowing canal.

Both the boys had come to Sheikupura from Raiwind to meet their relatives when they went to visit the canal.

Efforts are underway to find the body of other youth while the recovered corpse of 17-year-old Zeeshan has been handed over to the family.

Earlier this month, a boy was accidentally shot and injured while he was making a TikTok video in the Ibrahim Hyderi area of Karachi.

The incident happened when two boys were filming the video by holding loaded guns when one of them mistakenly pressed the trigger, injuring the other.

The boy was shifted to Karachi's Jinnah Hospital for treatment where he is said to be in critical condition.
