In a recent statement, CEO BOL News Shoaib Ahmed Shaikhrevealed why Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and Bol Network were being targeted.
Shoaib Shaikh said the false cases against Bol Network were forged during previous government of the same rulers. “At that time Bol had raised the slogan of ‘Haqeeqi Journalism’ that BolNews is coming and will do the real journalism. The slogan triggered panic among them,” he said.
He said 90 percent of the journalists in Pakistan had applied to join Bol News, not because it was offering huge packages, nonetheless because all the journalists wanted to follow genuine news ethics. “This irked them. Hence, they concocted fake cases against Axact, a technology-oriented organization with global operations. There was no complainant not only in Pakistan but the entire world who claimed that he had been swindled by the Karachi-based organization,” he maintained.
The rulers themselves held the investigation, still they found nothing. So, the investigation officer submitted to the court that it was a fake case and all the operations of Axact were legal and none of them was illegal.
“Bol News has vowed to continue ‘Haqeeqi Journalism’ despite all the odds and apparently being seen abandoned from a distance, just like the party of Imran Khan. Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan’s party also appears to be alone from a distance, however, it has an out of this world following of 80 percent,” the CEO Bol News said adding that similarly more than 80 percent audience preferred watching BolNews.
This Shoaib Shaikh said while talking to Bol News during his visit to monument of Arshad Sharif, which will later be inaugurated by mother of the late journalist.
