"Some satellite channels broke the law and did not respond to the warnings given to them to change their stance as per the law. That led to the broadcast signal of the satellite company being stopped. The channel was not closed," he said. "The news spread by some people about closure of satellite channels is nothing but rumours spread by those violating the law. The fact is that these channels are still broadcasting," said Abdulmaqsood. ___ (c)2012 AME Info (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates) Visit AME Info (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates) at www.ameinfo.com Distributed by MCT Information Services |
