ISLAMABAD, Oct 25(ABC): The General Headquarters (GHQ) on Tuesday asked the government to constitute a high-level panel to look into the killing of senior journalist Arshad Sharif by Kenyan law enforcement officials.
The Kenyan police fatally wounded Sharif on the night of Sunday, October 23, in what the Kenyan authorities said was a “mistaken identity” shooting on the outskirts of the Kenyan capital Nairobi.
The military, in a letter to the government, requested the formation of an inquiry commission for a detailed investigation into the killing of Sharif by Kenya police.
The letter also requests legal proceedings against those who are casting aspersions/accusations as per the constitution of Pakistan.
Earlier, Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb said Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif had decided to form a judicial commission headed by a high court judge to probe into the tragic incident.
