PM Shehbaz Orders Judicial Probe Into Arshad Sharif Killing
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has ordered the constitution of a judicial inquiry to probe slain Pakistani journalist Arshad Sharif's killing.

A high court judge will preside over the probe. The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) shared the development in a Tuesday post quoting Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb.



Arshad was killed in Kenya on Sunday. Local police billed the incident as a case of 'mistaken identity' while social media was rife with accusations. His wife Javeria, separately, reiterated calls for the family's right to privacy be respected. Kenya media, separately, has not been buying the police version (of events).
