Following the funeral prayers of Kulsoom Nawaz in London, her burial is set to be in Lahore, later today.
Many are still grieving over her passing and her own family members, Nawaz Sharif, Maryam Nawaz and Captain Safdar have also been released on parole to attend the funeral.
Suffice to say the media has done its part in covering the whole thing, however, one specific report by GEO has been getting heat for its coverage.
Azaz Syed, a reporter for GEO news covered the prep and dimensions of the grave and immediately got a ton of hate for it.

Many were commenting on the report itself, stating that it was completely unnecessary and in some ways, disrespectful.
