Syed Imran Shafqat

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

The only available reliable, secondary, in-depth sources are about his arrest and imprisonment, leading to WP:BLP1E and WP:BLPCRIME issues. I did the best BEFORE I could do, but I admit my ability to find, access, and evaluate Pakistani sources is limited. If there's GNG-compliant sourcing out there about other aspects of Shafqat's life, I'll gladly withdraw this nomination. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 02:09, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:BIO. Very limited coverage apart from his arrest (which likely falls under WP:NOTNEWS anyway), and most search results are for a doctor with the same name. Not too great for somebody whose notability (or lack thereof) only comes from the Internet... I found this, but the only parts related to the WP article's subject are based on an interview with him, so not independent. BilletsMauves (talk) 10:04, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
