KARACHI (Dunya News) – Governor Sindh Dr Ishratul Ibad said on Sunday that Geo News engaged in anti-state activity by starting a campaign against Pakistan institutions, Dunya News reported.
Addressing media, Governor said that all political parties and people stand united in solidarity with Pakistan’s defence institutions.
He said that Geo News has committed an act of enmity through its campaign against Pakistan Army and Inter Services Intelligence (ISI).
Private TV channel Geo News landed itself into controversy on April 19 in its coverage following the attack on prominent journalist Hamid Mir.
The attack was reported on every national TV channel including Dunya News within minutes of attack, however, Geo News distinguished itself in coverage by airing Hamid Mir’s brother Amir Mir’s allegations over DG of national institution. Geo News allegedly took it to task to repeatedly malign and defame DG ISI by flashing his picture on the breaking news broadcast for at least eight hours.
The channel backtracked by terming the allegations as Hamid Mir’s brother’s own statement and not of the channel’s.
Amir Mir claimed during the broadcast that Hamid Mir had informed him that DG ISI Lt. General Zaheer-ul-Islam is to be blamed if he was attacked.
