Civil Judge Ziaur Rahman has adjourned the hearing till December 21, seeking response from Abrar-ul-Haq, PEMRA and others.
The singer’s other tunes such as ‘Nach Punjaban Nach’ also came under similar criticism. Previously, his rendition of ‘Billo De Ghar’ for Coke Studio was also taken down due to alleged copyright issues.
