Karachi, April 01, 2022 (PPI-OT):The APNS strongly condemns the attack on life of Col. (Retd.) Amir, GM Admin of Daily Pakistan, Islamabad and Roze News, Islamabad. Mr. Sarmad Ali, President and Mrs. Nazafreen Saigol Lakhani, Secretary General of All Pakistan Newspapers Society in a statement, have expressed their profound concern on the murder attack on Col. Amir in daylight. It is highly regrettable that the Police Administration has not yet caught the culprits who fled away after the attack.
The APNS Office Bearers have stated that attacks on media persons are rapidly increasing and remained unchecked despite protests by media organizations. The APNS urged upon the Federal Capital Administration and the Police authorities to provide fool proof security to media persons and media outlets and take up the matter seriously to ensure that the culprits are brought to book without delay.
