Press freedom on the line as Imran moots 'media courts
From the Blog mehmal*The proposal has come in for criticism from Opposition, journalists and rights groups* On Tuesday, the Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information, Firdous Ashiq Awan, announced the Pakistan government's plan to establish special media tribunals or 'media courts', which would deal with all media-related cases. These courts would be bound to deal with the cases within 90 days. Ms. Awan said the government would get a law passed in Parliament to establish the tribunals. At present, media-related cases (mostly against journalists and media-houses) are being dealt with by the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) and the Press Council of Pakistan. But once the media courts are established, PEMRA would refer such cases to them, said Ms. Awan. The annoupakistanblogs.blogspot.comRead Full Post
