Two Ramazan shows broadcast by private news channels were taken off air Friday by regulators. The channels were said by Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) to have violated its code of conduct by promoting sectarian views and disgracing the holy month of Ramazan. "An immediate ban has been imposed on TV One's programme Ishq-e-Ramazan (hosted by Shabbir Abu Talib) and Aaj News programme Ramazan Hamara Iman (hosted by Hamza Ali Abbasi)," a PEMRA statement said. The regulator ordered both channels to cease the programmes from Friday evening or face being shutdown. PEMRA said it took action after receiving 1,133 complaints in four days.
