KARACHI – The Pakistan Broadcasters Association has said in a statement that any closure of a licensed channel on cable networks without following due course of law is unlawful and violates basic rights given under the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

PBA also demanded that any such violation of its members’ legal rights to broadcast must be immediately addressed.
