Akbar's sister, Sania Ox said: “My brother was perfect; he always will be. He was a really funny guy with a good sense of humour, and the cheekiest smile. He always got on with everyone. He was kind and helpful to everyone, regardless of who they were.

“He had a top personality, he was so childish, but still so amazing.

“He was the best brother ever, even better than I could ever ask for.”

Mohammed Sheraz said: “Devastated to hear the loss of innocent life of Akbar Masood, I had the pleasure of being his youth worker in Rochdale, a nice young lad who I enjoyed the laughs and giggles with. Many a trip we visited he was part of my youth groups and projects in Wardleworth. I was just watching his video with the rest of the 'Don't Hate us Rate us Group' last week."

Aiman Majeed said: “Blessed and grateful to have known and spoken to you a few times brother. From what I have seen you are and always will be a wonderful character Akbar Masood. May Allah grant you the highest rank in jannah InshaAllah.

“Praying for you and your family.”

Sonia Hamied said: “Still in shock to hear about the sudden loss of an old friend Akbar Masood. A young lad whose life was taken away before its time.

“He was a genuine person with a good heart, always making people laugh and smile."
