CNN, BBC transmissions blocked in Pakistan
2007-11-09
ISLAMABAD: CNN and BBC transmissions have been obstructed countrywide once again.

Islamabad CNN sources said that the US tv CNN and the British tv BBC transmissions in Pakistan have been blocked in Pakistan few hours before the rally of the Pakistan PeopleÂ’s Party Chairperson, Benazir Bhutto.

Following Saturday enforcement of emergency in the country, the government had closed all the local and foreign private tv channels, however, this ban on CNN and BBC was lifted yesterday, but hardly after 24 hours both these channels have once again been blocked, while the local private tv channels already remain obstructed since the imposition of emergency.
