The killing of a Pakistani investigative journalist in Kenya was a “planned assassination”, a team of Pakistani investigators has said in a report released on Wednesday.
Arshad Sharif, who was critical of Pakistan’s powerful army, was killed when police shot at his car on the outskirts of the Kenyan capital Nairobi in late October. Nairobi police later expressed regret over the incident, saying it had been a case of “mistaken identity” during a search for a similar car involved in a child abduction case.
