There are several notable people named Naveed Akram, so the answer depends on which one you mean. The two most prominent in current news and public records are:

Pakistani footballer

  • Muhammad Naveed Akram (born 16 May 1984) is a retired Pakistani footballer who played mainly as an attacking right-back.
  • He spent most of his club career at WAPDA F.C., winning multiple Pakistan Premier League titles, and represented Pakistan at both under‑23 and senior level, including the South Asian Games, AFC Asian Cup qualifiers, and the 2006 Asian Games, where he became known for a long‑range goal against Japan.

Bondi attack suspect

  • Another Naveed Akram is a 24‑year‑old man of Pakistani origin living in Sydney who has been identified by Australian law‑enforcement and media as one of the two alleged gunmen in the December 2025 mass shooting at a Hanukkah event at Bondi Beach, along with his father, Sajid Akram.
  • Reports describe him as an unemployed bricklayer from Sydney’s south‑west, previously investigated by security services, and currently in hospital under police guard after the attack, which left more than a dozen people dead and many injured.

If you mean a different Naveed Akram (for example someone you know personally or a professional in another field), adding more context such as location, profession, or organization would help narrow it down.
