ISLAMABAD: Col (retd) Zafar Ali Zafri, part of Pakistan’s 1960 Rome Olympics gold medal-winning squad, breathed his last at Combined Military Hospital (CMH), Rawalpindi, in the wee hours of Saturday.
Though he was not part of the playing XI (only 11 used to get the gold medal at that time), he toured Rome for the Games as a back-up player.
Zafri, 89, was admitted to CMH recently. The native of Chakwal was later buried at Kot Sarfraz.
Considered as an iconic hockey player, Zafri won silver in 1956 in Melbourne Olympics. He was the manager of the Pakistan hockey team that won the inaugural World Cup in Barcelona in 1971.
