ISLAMABAD—Prominent Dunya News anchor Kamran Khan (pictured) says he has been informed his upcoming interview with PTI Chairman Imran Khan cannot go on air.

"Point of no-Return: Imran Khan's statement yesterday on appointment of new COAS triggered a massive uproar in the country particularly in Pakistan Army. IHC furious President Alvi disassociated," Kamran said on Twitter.
