In a leaked US Diplomat cable the US has condemned GeoTv and its owner Jang Media Group for airing stories that encourage violence, the cable dated 11/26/2008 highlights how the network specifically targeted the Ahmadiyya Community which resulted in the murder of two prominent Ahmadi leaders after Geo Tv Network aired the program “Aaalim Online” on September 7, 2008. In the program guests used the phrase “Wajib ul Qatal” or “Duty to Kill” for those who believed in Ahmadiyyat.The cable also points out that no member of the Ahmadiyya Community was invited to speak.
Here are the exact excerpts from the cable:
……. While claiming to be moderate and neutral to USG policies, the “Jang Group” recently has increased its criticism of the USG and its policies, has engaged in anti-Semitic behaviour and has specifically targeted the Ahmadi religious minority group in a television program that resulted in the death of two (including one Amcit) Ahmadis.
