New Delhi: In the Indian subcontinent, the freedom of journalists has been repeatedly questioned. Now that question has become stronger in an incident in Pakistan. Sanaullah criticized Pakistan Cricket Board chief and interior minister Mohsin Naqvi. He had to leave the country, is Naqvi behind the kidnapping of his brother?
Sanaullah has repeatedly lashed out against the way Naqvi is managing the Pakistan Cricket Board. He was later exiled by PCB’s media director. As a result, he could not go to the field to cover the match, nor was he allowed to attend the press conference. Additionally, many current and former Pakistani cricketers were not willing to work with him as he was in exile. Fed up and frustrated with the whole affair, Sanaullah decided to leave Pakistan. This journalist, who is quite popular on social media, has his new address in Dubai.
But there was no solution. When the Champions Trophy was held in Dubai last year, the board was called and requested by the Pakistan board not to allow Sanaullah to enter the field. Sanaullah has often gone against his own country Indian team And the journalist praised the way the Indian Cricket Board managed the team. After that he probably had to leave Dubai and from there he crossed to Australia.
Sanaullah posted a video from Australia about his brother’s abduction. He said his brother had gone to pick up his children from school in Lahore when he was abducted. He requested the country’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz to take swift action in the incident.

In the video posted, Sanaullah can be heard saying, ‘My brother was kidnapped six hours ago. I will request Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz to (address) this. I am currently in Australia. I did not go into the depth of why I had to come here. My brother went to fetch his children from school. He was abducted on his way to school. Then six hours passed.’ In this whole incident, many people think that Sanaullah pointed the finger at Naqvi.
