style="text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-ideograph">With
deep grief and regret, this is to inform that Mr. Imran Ahmed
Shah, dear friend and one of the prominent Internet leaders
from Pakistan, passed away yesterday. Imran was one of the
founding members of the Internet Society Pakistan Islamabad
Chapter and had a diverse portfolio with I* organizations. He
was the founder of Urdu Internet Society and also worked
extensively on IDNs and local content. Imran actively
participated in the national, regional and global Internet
Governance events, most recently at the IGF 2019 in Berlin,
Germany. His family has informed that Imran was in good health
but died suddenly due to brain hemorrhage at the age of just
50. He is survived by a wife, 15 year old daughter and 11 year
old son. <o:p></o:p></p>
