LHC moved against ban

Ban on exhibition of film ‘Maalik’ has been challenged in the Lahore High Court through a writ petition.  A lawyer Mehboob Alam filed the petition and submitted that film ‘Maalik’ had discussed the issue of corruption and social issues. He stated that film neither was against the sovereignty of the state nor it was against the social values but despite that the government had banned exhibition of film in cinemas across the country. —Correspondent
