Arshad Sharif case: JIT seeks personal records of ARY News employees

ISLAMABAD: The Joint Investigation Team (JIT) probing the martyr journalist Arshad Sharif’s murder case reached ARY News Islamabad office and sought personal records of the journalists and other employees.

The joint investigation team on Arshad Sharif’s murder case visited ARY News Islamabad office today and sought personal records of the journalists and other employees.

The move apparently exhibited the coalition government’s intention to harass ARY News employees after failing to take any action against those who threatened and lodged the First Information Reports (FIRs) against the martyr journalist.
