The most siblings with albinism is 6, and includes Naseem Akhtar, Ghulam Ali, Haider Ali, Muqadas Bibi, Musarat Begum, Mohammed Rafi (all UK), as verified in Coventry, UK, on 14 May 2021.

Pakistani born Aslam Parvez and Shameem Akhtar who both have albinism went on to have 6 children who also have albinism.

There has been much media coverage of the family over the years and it has always been their wish to be recognised by Guinness World Records.

Sadly, the family was estranged for 24 years but reunited over the pandemic which was an amazing moment. To mark this momentous event Naseem decided to apply for this record title.
