In conformation, ARY did not announce Sharif’s death as a murder but instead as an accident until people on social media started questioning Salman Iqbal for being disloyal to their ex-employee whom he expelled after the above breach of PEMRA regulations during Arshad Sharif’s program Power Play.
After quitting the channel, Sharif moved to Dubai and the Bol News Anchorperson was associated with ARY News. Condolences began to pour in from all over the country as soon as the news of Sharif’s death was announced. Imran Khan, chairman of the PTI and former Prime Minister, offered his condolences regarding the journalist Arshad Sharif’s passing. Hina Pervaiz Butt, leader of the PML-N, expressed her sincere condolences regarding the journalist’s passing, and Ali Zaidi, leader of the PTI, also expressed his sorrow regarding Shariff’s passing.
