Arshad Sharif, senior journalist and anchor of the program “Powerplay,” was dismissed by ARY News after a long 8-year tenure. The reason behind the bitter decision is breaking the company’s code of conduct.

The official twitter account of ARY News clearly states, “ARY Network’s code of conduct for its employees clearly states that any post by an employee on social media strictly has to be in accordance with the company’s policy. Thus with a heavy heart we would like to announce that after a journey of 8 years together, ARY has parted ways with Arshad Sharif. We wish him all the very best for his future endeavours.”
