ISLAMABAD—Dr. Nauman Niaz (pictured), Director Sports and Syndication Pakistan Television (PTV) has been appointed as director training at the Islamabad PTV Academy.

Lt. Col. (Retd) Hassan Immad Mohemadi, a director of special assignments at the PTV Academy, will replace Niaz, says a notification.

Niaz was sacked in January 2017 and made an OSD over a row regarding signing a contract with ARY Karachi Kings as brand and media partners.

However, the state-broadcaster reinstated him to his previous position as director sports and syndication a month later.

PTV sacked eight employees in December citing financial constraints days after Naeem Bukhari was appointed the chairman.
