He reminded that Mir Javed never asked for any favour while staying in the Kingdom since he was regular about his prayers and other Islamic obligations. Ambassador Nawaf said that Mir Javed’s death is a great loss of Pakistan’s media which will remember him as remarkable benefactor for a very long period of time.
