Such violence against hard-working journalists is totally unacceptable. Appropriate action should be taken against those responsible. This issue should not be swept under the carpet. This is pure thuggery and threatening an employee like this is total injustice. Such a violation of basic rights should be taken up at the highest level. (sheharyar rizwan)

I am astonished by hearing today on Capital TV phono of two senior trade union leaders of journalist community Pervez Shaukat and Mazhar Abbas who despite investigating the fact of the issue gave their comments on a such issue in which Capital TV management thrashed their reporter Huzaifa Qureshi but Senior journalists like Nasim Zehra and Fahd Hussain also misguided their viewers that is very un-forunate.

The owners of Capital TV have become relatives of Salman Farooqi, Usman Farooqi(late) ,their talented daughter Sharmila Farooqi. The Investigative Journalists like Huzaifa & Kharal had to be careful.
Waseem Shahzad Qadri said: کل سے جھوٹ بول رہے ہیں کہ ای او بی آئی والوں نے ایف آئی آر درج کروائی ہے۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔مگر حقیقت کیا نکلی۔۔۔۔آر آئی یو جے زندہ آباد جس سے صحافی کا ساتھ دیا اور احتجاج کا اعلان کیا۔۔۔۔پیمرا کو بھی چینل کی خلاف جھوٹ بولنے پر کاروائی عمل میں لانی چاہئے۔۔۔۔۔۔
لوگوں کو گمراہ کیا گیا۔۔۔۔۔
Rizwan Razi said: Ahmed Noorani & Jami both are right. If a journalist is ready to take the slot in the TV of Maama Mooda, then he should met the same fate. If a journalist is not seeing the source of Income/investment of the company, whether it is coming from legal or illegal sources, then he would have no right to complain against such things. Sorry for Aman ki Basha fellows. Pls dont mind, it was not for you, it was for the the channel of human smugglers.
Ghulam Murtaza said: This is a difference between a professional Media House and a Media Brokerage House…All community stands with Huzaifa Rehman…Its a question mark on our seniors working with this TV, Nasim Zehara Sahiba, Fahd Hussain Sab, …need my seniors opinion…
Malik Abdul Rehman Jami said: صرف ایف آئ آر کا اندراج کافی نهیں ایک اکیلا رپورٹر تو ایک سپاهی کا خرچ برداشت نهیں کر سکتا آپ کو دامے درمے قدمے سخنے اس کے ساتھ هونا هے تبھی آپ ان دھکوں سے بچ سکتے هیں جو کل آپ کو اپنے چینل کے مالکوں کے بیٹوں سے پڑ سکتے هیں.

ISLAMABAD, July 18: The owners of a private TV channel were booked by the Shalimar police on the charge of detaining and assaulting a reporter after he complained about non-payment of his salary.
The police said the case was registered on the direction of the interior minister.
Huzaifa Rehman, who broke the EOBI (Employees Old-Age Benefits Institution (EOBI) scam, informed the chief justice of Pakistan during the hearing of the case that his organisation had stopped his salary.
Talking to Dawn, Mr Rehman said after taking suo motu notice of the scam the chief justice had asked the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to strengthen his security.
On Thursday, the reporter informed the court that he could not arrange meal for the security personnel due to non-payment of his salary by his employers.
Besides, he added, his employers were also considering sacking him.
In response, the chief justice issued orders for protection of his job and payment of the salary.
Later, his employer called him asking him to come to his office.
When the reporter arrived in the office, the owner along with his brother snatched his cellphone and manhandled him.
However, he managed to escape from the office and informed his guards who took him away.
The journalist reached the Supreme Court and brought the incident into the notice of SC Register Dr Faqir Hussain.
The registrar called the interior minister and asked him to take legal action against the accused.
On the other hand, the employees of the TV channel denied the claim of the reporter that he had been detained or manhandled.
They said the reporter met the owners over the salary issue and there was a possibility that they had exchanged harsh words.
