Arshad Sharif Journalist

Pakistani journalist Arshad Sharif, who was killed in Kenya, was brutally tortured for hours before being shot dead, a media report said on Thursday citing post-mortem reports.

Pakistan government has called on Kenyan authorities to share details and investigation reports concerning the murder of journalist Arshad Sharif in Kenya last month, Geo News reported on Monday.

Responding to the ruckus gaining traction over who had asked journalist Arshad Sharif to flee the country, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief and former prime minister Imran Khan has said, "Yes, it was me."

Pakistan's foreign ministry on Friday described as "baseless and fabricated" the reports that Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari wrote a letter to the UAE authorities to expel journalist Arshad Sharif who was killed in Kenya.

The Pakistan government on Wednesday reconstituted a panel probing the killing of senior journalist Arshad Sharif in Kenya by dropping an ISI agent from the team, days after he was shot dead by the Nairobi police.

A senior Pakistan journalist, who was booked on charges of sedition and peddling "anti-state" narrative by the country's security agencies earlier this year, was shot dead in Kenya, his wife said on Monday.
