The father of a Pakistani exchange student who was killed in the  Santa Fe, Texas  high  school shooting  said he hopes his daughter’s death leads to gun reform in the U.S. Sabika Sheikh, 17, was one of 10 people killed by Santa Fe High School student  Dimitrios Pagourtzis  in a mass shooting on Friday. Sheikh’s father said she came to the U.S. because she wanted to work in civil service or become a diplomat to help foster a stronger relationship between the U.S. and Pakistan. “Sabika’s case should become an example to change the gun laws,”  Aziz Sheikh, Sabika’s father, told Reuters .  “I want this to become a base on which the people over there can stand and pass a law to deal with this. I’ll do whatever I can,” he said.
