Brutally murdered veteran journalist malik ismail’s first death anniversary on 01 November, held in “daurdad” (attock). Family members appeal for justice.Malik Mohammad Ismail Khan, brutally murdered veteran journalist’s first death anniversary will be observed at his native village Daurdad, (Sanjwal-Bahter Road) Tehsil and District Attock, on Thursday 01 November 2007.
Recitation of the Holy Quran and Fateh prayer will be held for the departed soul of Shaheed Mohammad Ismail Khan. Deceased Senior journalist’s sons Rizwan Ismail Khan, Zishan Ismail Khan and brothers Malik Mohammad Khateeb Khan, Hafiz Abdul Hameed Khan (District Correspondent Daily “Ausaf”), Abdul Rasheed Khan and Abdul Waheed Khan have requested for relatives and friends of Malik Ismail to participate on this occasion and remember him in their duas.
Malik Ismail was in journalism for the last thirty years and he was working as a Resident Editor of an independent national news agency Pakistan Press International (PPI) Islamabad, at the time of his brutal murder under mysterious circumstances by unidentified people on midnight of 31st October/01st November 2006.
He had no enmity or personal conflict with any one. During his career he worked with prominent media organisations including Daily “The Muslim”, Daily “The Frontier Post”, Daily “The Mashriq” News agencies “Online” and “PPI”.
He started his career in journalism as a Reporter from Attock in 1976, and worked his way up to Peshawar and Islamabad as a Senior Staff Reporter, Chief Reporter, Columnists, Editor Reporting, Bureau Chief and Resident Editor till his sudden blow, which has devastated his whole family and shocked the journalist community.
He was an honest, upright, fearless and a conscientious journalist and was widely admired and respected in the community of journalists for his qualities of character and professionalism. He always worked for the positive image of independent journalism in Pakistan.
At the noisy protest by the journalist community, Prime Minister of Pakistan Mr. Shaukat Aziz, and Federal Interior Minister Mr. Aftab Ahmad Khan Sherpao, has been ordered two separate inquiries for a full investigation, but nothing has come from any inquiry or interrogations.
The family members express their grief and sorrow at the fact that the murderers have not been caught and said that Malik Ismail who was such a very kind, humble and caring person will never come back to us but, that justice should be done.
They have demanded to the Honourable Chief Justice of Pakistan Mr. Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhary to take “Sou Moto Action” of the clueless investigation into the brutal murder of a senior journalist even after a whole year, to provide them justice and bringing the actual culprits for exemplary punishment.
