While filing a case with police station, Muhammad Jibran Nasir, a lawyer and social activist, took stance that he is a Muslim and a citizen respecting law.

This programme was being broadcast under the supervision of its owner Shoaib Sheikh, Senior Executive Vice President Amir Zia, Chairman and Bureau Chief Faisal Aziz Khan.
