Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) on Monday issued a show cause notice to ARY News for telecasting comments "based on hearsay, trying to spread fear and apparently attempting to influence the cases in the Supreme Court".

Pemra has given seven days to the management of ARY News for filing a reply, read a statement issued by the regulatory body.

Pemra can impose a fine of Rs1 million, suspend the licence of the channel or even cancel its licence under Section 30, the statement added.

“It is worth mentioning that in its 1200 hours news bulletin on November 7 (Monday), at 1236 hours an interview of Asad Kharal was aired in which he stated baseless things about a case in the Supreme Court.”http://nation.com.pk/national/07-Nov-2016/pemra-issues-show-cause-notice-to-ary-news

Pemra issues show cause notice to ARY News

Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) has issued a show cause notice to 'ARY News' for a provocative comment on a statement by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.

In ARY News programme 'The Reporters' dated March 23, 2017 from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm a guest, Shahid Latif, termed a statement by the prime minister as blasphemous which is a very dangerous trend.

The hosts of the programme neither intervene on this occasion nor stopped him from passing such comments which is a violation of Pemra rules.

This has been conveyed to the TV channel that airing any offensive, provocative or derogatory remarks falls in a clear violation of the clause 20 (f) of Pemra Amendment Act 2007, rule 15(1) of 2009 and various sections and clauses of the Pemra Code of Conduct 2015.


The authority has thus issued a show cause notice to ARY News directing it to submit reply within seven days (by March 31, 2017 12:00 pm) and explain why appropriate action should not be taken against it for airing hate speech and remarks in violation of Pemra rules.

The action against the channel may include: banning of the programme 'The Reporters' under Section 27 of Pemra Rules, cancellation of the license under Section 30 and a fine of Rs one million under Section 29. In case of non-compliance, the matter will be proceeded ex-parte.
