I dedicate my victory to the entire nation of Pakistan, Arshad said following his victory.
I was told the whole nation is awake just to watch me attempt to win.
His first throw was red-flagged after he stepped over the line, leaving him with a disappointing start.

He surpassed Andreas Thorkildsens previous Olympic record of 90.57m, which was set at the 2008BeijingGames.
When he gets home, we will celebrate him in such a way that the world will never forget!
continued the proud brother.

I am so happy, what can I tell you?
she was quoted telling local outletGeo News.
I want to hug him and kiss him.

He has made Pakistans name proud, earned Pakistan a medal and made its flag fly proudly.
