NAIROBI, Kenya — The widow of a prominent Pakistani journalist who was killed a year ago in Kenya filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against an elite Kenyan police unit she accuses of the wrongful death of her husband.
The lawsuit also wants the court to direct the Attorney General “to issue a public apology, including an acknowledgement of the facts, and acceptance of responsibility to the family of Arshad Sharif within seven days of this court’s order.”Pakistan claims its first-ever win in soccer World Cup qualifying, edging Cambodia 1-0“I am suing the GSU because they committed the crime openly, then admitted that it was a case of mistaken identity.
Police in Nairobi said the journalist was shot and killed when he did not stop driving at a roadblock on the outskirts of the capital. The family, rights groups and Pakistani investigators countered that the killing was an assassination planned in Pakistan. News of the killing shook Pakistan and thousands attended Sharif’s funeral as the nation mourned last year. Sharif’s friends, family and colleagues have demanded justice for him on social media and held rallies across Pakistan to draw attention to the case.
