Pakistani Journalist Sadaf: A Tragic Death or a Planned Killing, Mr Imran Khan?

Sadaf Naeem, a journalist for a private news channel, died as Imran Khan’s long march was making its way from GT Road in Lahore to Kamoke. She was crushed to death by a container.

Imran Khan, the leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, on Sunday ended his “long march” for the day after a Pakistani journalist named Sadaf Naeem who was in attendance at the former prime minister’s event perished after being trampled under one of his containers.

A private news channel journalist named Naeem passed away as the long march from GT Road Lahore was making its way toward Kamoke.

Speaking to his supporters, Khan said the march was supposed to move towards Kamoke, Gujranwala. “However, due to the tragic incident, we will stop the march immediately.”

Khan also sent his condolences to the family of the deceased and said that he would pray for the departed soul.

“Shocked & deeply saddened by the terrible accident that led to the death of Channel 5 reporter Sadaf Naeem during our March today. I have no words to express my sorrow. My prayers & condolences go to the family at this tragic time. We have cancelled our March for today,” Khan tweeted.

On Monday, the fourth day of the long march would begin in Kamoke. It was originally intended to arrive in Gujranwala by the end of the third day.

In response to the journalist’s passing, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif expressed his deep sorrow over the incident. On Monday, the fourth day of the long march would begin in Kamoke. It was originally intended to arrive in Gujranwala by the end of the third day.
