There are also reports of four employees being shown the door at the channel’s Karachi office and a few others in Lahore. Names of the sacked staffers were not immediately available.

This fresh round of terminations was expected after managers at the Seraiki-language channel laid off their Chief Operating Officer Salman Ali, Director Programs Usman Adil, Director Distribution Jamshed Ali and Senior Producer Intizar Hussain at the start of June.
