The apex court issued a three-page order in a contempt case against Senator Vawda and MNA Kamal
ISLAMABAD – The Supreme Court on Saturday warned media outlets, including news channels, of contempt proceedings for broadcasting, rebroadcasting or publishing the “contemptuous” press conferences of lawmakers Faisal Vawda and Mustafa Kamal.
The court warned “all those who broadcast, rebroadcast or publish material constituting contempt may also be committing contempt of court. Media outlets should desist from doing so, failing which they may also be proceeded against, for contempt of court.” The SC order stated Senator Vawda held a press conference on May 15 at the National Press Club, which was broadcast live on a number of TV channels. It was also streamed on the internet and social media forums and extracts from his talk were published in different newspapers.
The SC order said that Article 19 of the Constitution grants every citizen the right to freedom of speech and expression, but places restrictions, amongst others, with regard to contempt of court.
