パキスタンのケーブルテレビ放送からアル・ジャジーラの番組が消えつつあります。政府から圧力がかかっている模様です。
どうやら、オサマ・ビン・ラディン氏がアル・ジャジーラを使って『グランド・フィナーレ』とも言うべきイベントを計画しているという噂があるようです。
Transmissions of Al Jazeera fade away
Transmissions of news and other programmes, broadcast by the Qatar-based Al Jazeera Television network, have begun to fade away from TV sets in Lahore, apparently as cable operators take it off the air.
The reasons for this are unclear, but sources say "instructions" have been given by the government about this.
While some cable operators deny this, saying only that "demand for the channel is fading", others do say that "orders from the government" say broadcasts should stop.
Though the channel's programmes are in Arabic, a language not understood in the country, these remained hugely popular, mainly due to its unusual access to Osama bin Laden.
While some smaller operators are continuing to offer this channel, many have ended transmission.
Hakim Khan, an operator who runs a small cable service in the Mozang area of Lahore, says he was visited by district administration officials, who told him "broadcasting Al Jazeera was illegal and that I should stop or I would receive a notice".
The situation, however, remains unclear.
In Islamabad, too, it is reported that the Al Jazeera network is being taken off the air by cable operators.
This is despite the fact that a demand for the channel is continuing, with some operators stating that "clients have been calling in about this, but not in large numbers".
There is speculation in the country that the situation could be linked to recent rumours that Osama bin Laden is getting set for an "especially dramatic" broadcast on Al Jazeera.
While officials for Al Jazeera, contacted by e-mail in London, denied this, reports have continued to speculate that this could be the "grand finale" planned by Osama.
"We really have no information, and neither do Al Jazeera officials based in Pakistan, but then the whole thing is probably a closely kept secret," noted a source at the information ministry.
The possibility that this is a reason for new attempts to control Al Jazeera transmissions is being conceded by operators.
Khalid Ali, based in the Allama Iqbal Town in Lahore, admitted for example that he had "heard about this" and "read some items in magazines and the press".
The policy of Al Jazeera has come under criticism in the West, but won the channel publicity across the world.
