On Wednesday, an aircraft carrying the deceased remains of veteran journalist and presenter Sharif arrived in Islamabad from Doha.
A sizable crowd, including politicians and other media professionals, as well as the deceased journalist’s family members, were at the airport to receive Sharif’s body.
Arshad Sharif’s corpse is transported to Islamabad.
In a “wrong identification case,” Arshad Sharif was reportedly shot and killed by Kenyan police on Sunday along the Nairobi-Magadi highway.
Kenyan media reports that the reporter was tragically shot in the head by police after allegedly disobeying a roadblock established to monitor traffic on the route.
The media reported that they were instructed to stop a car that resembled the one Arshad Sharif and his driver were driving after it was involved in a carjacking in Nairobi and a child was held captive.
