Islamabad (HRNW) Politicians, journalists, and netizens have condemned the alleged assault on a local media outlet anchorperson Sami Ibrahim in Islamabad on Saturday evening.
Former prime minister Imran Khan took to twitter, saying that he strongly condemned the attack on senior journalist Sami Ibrahim, equating it with the earlier attack on journalist Ayaz Amir. “These fascist tactics seeking to terrorize journalists is an attempt to subdue people into accepting US regime change, conspiracy, and cabal of crooks in power.”
Senior journalist Shaheen Sehbai termed the assault as a pattern for those who are not stopping. “They don’t realize they can do it now but will regret tomorrow and next day. As Zardari said, ‘You will retire and look at those who did this few years ago and have now vanished.’ Stay strong, Sami,” he tweeted.
Fellow anchor person Asma Shirazi shared the CCTV footage of the alleged assault on Ibrahim, expressing hope that the police will conduct a thorough investigation to bring forward the actual facts.
