ISLAMABAD: President Pervez Musharraf has once again started to press hard to stop transmission of Geo News channel in what appears to be a bid to prevent the channel from supporting the lawyers’ movement.
Authorities in the U-A-E have asked Geo Television to immediately stop airing two popular talk shows “Meray Mutabiq” and “Capital Talk”, otherwise the channel will lose its license and will have to stop its operations in Dubai.
The Pakistani officials want that at least these two programmes – “Meray Mutabiq” hosted by Dr. Shahid Masood and “Capital Talk” by Hamid Mir – stopped to be aired forthwith.
Geo TV administration says it is committed to report facts to the people and in order to continue to do this it is even ready to wind up all its operations in Dubai and shift to Honk Kong or UK.
President Pervez Musharraf had already withheld license of Geo English and even after the new government has come to power the license still remains to be issued.
