Press Statement Political party cadres attack TV office in Karachi23 Aug, 2016 The IFJ has called for urgent action to be taken against those who incited and carried out violent attacks on media companies in Karachi. The Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists (PFUJ) strongly condemned the attacks, including the assault on 22 August on the ARY News TV station by the cadres of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) political movement. Dozens of attackers armed with rods broke into the office and vandalized doors, windows, furniture and equipment and set fire to vehicles. According to news reports the violent storming of the station was carried out by MQM supporters Qaumi after their leader Altaf Hussein, currently in exile in London, incited them to attack TV stations during a speech criticizing media for not giving due coverage to their week-long hunger strike against the government’s crackdown against MQM, delivered over the phone and relayed by loudspeakers. The MQM cades also attacked the media workers and vehicles who went to cover their hunger strike near the Karachi Press Club.
