Controversies
In May 2012, a program was run on this channel which was hosted by Muhammad Farooq Nizami. He was asked about the proper response to those who do not respect Prophet Muhammad. He replied and said, “We are ready, and should be ready at all times, to kill a blasphemer.”[5]
Frooq also justified the actions of Mumtaz Qadri, the police officer who assassinated Governor of Punjab Salmaan Taseer in 2011, by defying Taseer's calls for changes to the controversial blasphemy law.[6]
In July, Britain’s Office of Communications fined £85,000 to TV channel after it broadcast a speech saying Muslims had a "duty to kill" anyone who insulted the Prophet Muhammad.[6]
