KARACHI: The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) ordered the management of the Geo TV network on Thursday night to stop airing its flagship daily news programme "Aaj Kamran Khan Key Saath" with immediate effect, according to a spokesman for Geo News.

<b>As per the government order, Geo News aired an apology to its viewers at 11:05 pm, the regular time for the programme with Kamran Khan explaining the govt order that led to the banning of the show.</b>

Aaj Kamran Khan Key Saath, one of the most popular news shows with Pakistan's most watched Geo TV, is hosted by Kamran Khan, among the country's best known investigative journalists and news anchors. "I never knew that the government would get so desperate and would lose patience so soon with this free flow of information," said Kamran Khan. "We never had any agenda other than providing people the most accurate news and an objective analysis on this most important turning point of our history," he added. This programme was very much within the framework of the law and had no illegal contents.
