Summary
It was only in 2002 that Tabassum and her two daughters Kuki (Shehzana Anwar) and the older Sanna stumbled upon archery at a sports exhibition in Splash near Carnivore, with Kuki going competitive.
That first win in 2004 propelled Kuki to be selected for the world games and in 2005 she qualified for the international competition in Germany.
In 2016, she won the African Archery competition that qualified her for the Olympics in the same year.
