Just heard of the horrible & tragic accident that led to reporter Sadaf Naeem's death during our March. Some of us were far ahead past Kamoke so learnt of the accident late. Such a tragic loss of life. No words can ever suffice to express depth of sorrow to the bereaved family.

Extremely sad to hear that a female reporter of channel five lost her life while covering the PTI long march in the line of duty. Reporters are paid a paltry sum by media organisations and are the first to suffer in any incident!
