Dear Colleagues,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is terrible and unbelievable news. Really sad
to hear this. Imran was an untiring worker for Global Internet
Governance from Pakistan. We will agree and a lot of times
disagree but we all would value for his untiring efforts in
several different spaces, where he would represent very
effectively in all the areas of his interest. </div>

<div>Our prayers for the departed soul and condolence
