Karachi: Pakistan’s head of BBC, UK’s official broadcasting organization, has come under harsh criticism from Pakistan’s social media user over his comments on Muslim killings in Burma.
Amir Ahmed Khan, head of BBC’s Pakistan service, reportedly said, according to a Facebook picture, ‘these news (regarding Muslims killings) are not worth of publishing’.
He was speaking at a debate program naming ‘Takrar’ aired on local news channel Express News.
The later sentence quoted him saying “we have highlight Balochistan issue” enraging social media users who termed it a conspiracy to split Pakistan.
Due to some slang words in the picture, it could not be published on The News Tribe.
