In madrassas, the use of cell phones is strictly prohibited. Yet for one brave seminary student at the Jamia Manzoor-ul-Islamia a phone became the only way to gather evidence against Mufti Aziz-ur-Rehman. It was a sting operation of sorts. For the former JUI leader had been sexually molesting the student for years.
After reaching out to journalist Jameel Farooqui of BOL News, through a source, the student’s tearful exposé not only lifted the lid on an Islamic scholar popular amongst the madrassas of Lahore it also brought the young man to the point of contemplating taking his own life. “It’s better if I commit suicide,” he said in a video message earlier this month.
Adviser to Prime Minister on Interior and Accountability Shahzad Akbar has expressed his views over the illegal actions taken by chairman PEMRA Saleem Baig while speaking to host Jameel Farooqui in BOL News’ Program ‘National Debate‘.
Shahzad Akbar said that, “PEMRA is working under law, however, if an order is not complied with, contempt of court case is made.”
Shahzad Akbar also said that he will tell Prime Minister Imran Khan regarding the illegal actions by PEMRA for not airing BOL News in different areas of the country and placing the channel to the last number.
“I will convey the voice of BOL to the Prime Minister. The voice of BOL must have reached PM Imran Khan by now,” said Shahzad Akbar.
