BOL News has been one of the most watched channels in Pakistan as the organization is committed to unfurling the truth and authenticity.
The channel has been serving the nation for the past many years and the people of Pakistan blindly trust the media organization as it has always strived hard for the freedom of information.
The past few months were severely distressing for the channel as the network was attacked multiple times by several means for continuing the true journalistic responsibilities with dedication.
The pressure started piling up on the channel when its President Sami Ibrahim faced FIR and the channel was forced to expel him along with Jameel Farooqui – another audacious journalist and part of BOL family.
However, the channel while crushing all the external pressure stood with its employees and issued a press release maintaining that the channel will not expel any employee on the wish of anyone.
“We will not compromise on the freedom of Information/Press and the integrity of Pakistan. We will air whatever for the interest and benefit of the Nation as protected under the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.”
In multiple instances, BOL was threatened and pressurized like – when the senior Anchorperson Imran Riaz Khan was given the platform, when Arshad Sharif was signed, when Sabir Shakir was given a chance onair, when BOL stood with the family of Arshad Sharif after his murder but on all such occasions the channel refused to bend and to work against the ethics.
Not only this, but when Siddiqui Jan and MakhdomShahabuddin were hired, the channel had to go through a lot. BOL even raised its voice against the torture of Senator Azam Swati and the issue of his personal video leak.
The channel stood for the Haqeeqi Azadi march and showed the true sentiments of the nation to the world despite the attempts to rule it with a rod of iron.
The latest attempt to downtrodden BOL News is made and it has been tried to confine the CEO BOL Shoaib Shaikh to his home so he could not present in court and resultantly the court will recall the suspension order and issue a warrant against him. However, he is a firm believer in Allah and he shall appear in Court.
The channel has issued a press release in this regard maintaining that the organization has been braving illegal attempts by different State departments and they are now trying to confine Shoaib Shaikh to his home so that he could not present in the Court and resultantly Court will recall the suspension order and issue warrant against him.
The channel is once again making it clear to the people of Pakistan that it will not turn its back on the nation and will keep working for the freedom of information and freedom of journalism. The channel will never let anyone clamp it down and will keep serving the nation with determination and responsibility.
