Ban On Broadcasting
The Sindh High Court has once again reinstated the ban on broadcasting speeches by Imran Khan.
The court had initially suspended the notification from the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) that prohibited the airing of speeches by the Chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party.
However, a two-member bench has now overturned the single bench’s decision, restoring PEMRA’s ban on broadcasting Imran Khan’s speeches.
This move comes after the court had earlier, on November 14, temporarily lifted the ban imposed by PEMRA on airing Imran Khan’s speeches.
PEMRA had initially imposed the ban on May 31, citing allegations of baseless accusations, hate speech, and provocative statements against state institutions and officers.
The media regulatory body argued that such content violated constitutional Article 19 and a Supreme Court judgment, emphasizing the need for responsible broadcasting and compliance with PEMRA laws and court decisions.
Malik Riaz’s Earth-Shaking Interview Recorded By Anchor Javed Chaudhry Being Aired Soon
Meanwhile, veteran journalist Javed Chaudhry hinted at a potential headline-making interview that might soon captivate the nation’s attention, this time featuring property mogul Malik Riaz rather than a politician.
Chaudhry hinted at this in a video blog, suggesting that the interview either has been recorded or is on the verge of being recorded.
Malik Riaz stands as the figure behind Bahria Town, one of the nation’s largest real estate projects sprawling across various cities from Rawalpindi to Karachi.
According to Chaudhry, the interview is anticipated to revolve around three crucial points. Firstly, it may delve into Riaz’s involvement in the Rs460 billion fine imposed by the Supreme Court.
Allegedly, the conversation might touch upon the role of former Chief Justice Saqib Nisar in this matter and any benefits he might have received.
The second point of discussion could center around the 2014 sit-in staged by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf. Riaz might unveil contentious claims regarding the planning, funding, and management of the protest.
