Corrigendum

A story titled “Imran Khan’s right eye vision ‘improving’, says sister citing report” was published by Dawn.com on February 16. The report quoted a social media account purporting to belong to Noreen Niazi, a sister of former prime minister Imran Khan. Subsequent checks have confirmed that the account was not authentic and that the information shared was inaccurate and mala fide. The story has since been removed from our platforms. We are conducting an internal review of the circumstances that led to its publication and strengthening our verification protocols, particularly with regard to social media sourcing. Dawn remains committed to upholding the highest standards of accuracy, verification and editorial integrity, and will continue to take corrective steps whenever necessary to ensure responsible reporting.
