The complainants said that both the shows aired provocative content.
Did the Sunni-Barelvi Tigers just threaten Hamza Ali Abbassi on Facebook for pro-Ahmadi comments?
"During these transmissions, ratings were focused on in the guise of Ramazan shows, in which sectarianism and provocative conversations took place which have led to much sadness and anger," read the PEMRA statement.
