Pakistan Press Foundation

DHAKA: The Cable Operators Association of Bangladesh (Coab), a body of cable operators in Bangladesh, threatened on Thursday that they would take off all Pakistani television channels in Bangladesh.

According to a private TV channel, it has been reported that the ban will be put into effect because of the recent tension between the two countries following JI leader Abdul Qadir Molla’s hanging.

In addition to this, the commerce secretary has been quoted as saying “We will decide in a day or two about the participation of Pakistani stalls in the trade fair.” He assured the youth that the demand for suspending trade relations with Pakistan had been conveyed to higher authorities.The ban, once enacted, will be yet another step towards a complete breakdown in fast deteriorating ties between Pakistan and Bangladesh.
