Justice Mirza directs media regulatory body to not pressurise TV channels
We would rather have a rape survivor shame herself to death than rise courageous and strong for what she survived.
PTI Chairman Imran Khan filed contempt court plea against PEMRA over ban on his speeches in Lahore High Court (LHC).
The ban is unacceptable even though Khan’s party itself attempted to gag a broad spectrum of media during its rule.
Pakistan's media regulating body has prohibited live broadcasts of ex-PM, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Imran Khan's speeches after the leader allegedly threatened an Islamabad police officer and a female magistrate during an address. Imran's recorded speeches now would only be allowed to air if an adequate delay mechanism was in place to provide effective monitoring and editorial control, said the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA).
