Peshawar High Court ordered to ban TikTok
Peshawar: The Peshawar High Court (PHC) has ordered to ban TikTok from today.
According to details, a hearing was conducted in PHC on a petition filed by an Advocate Nazish Muzaffar to ban TikTok, a mobile app used by teenagers to make and share videos, in Pakistan.
Speaking during proceedings, CJP Peshawar High Court Justice Qaiser Khan stated that the videos uploaded on TikTok are against our cultural and moral values.
Director General Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (DG PTA) told court that they have requested TikTok authorities to regulate inappropriate and obscene content.
“Till the time TikTok authorities do not cooperate with you to stop immoral content, we are imposing a ban on this app,” CJP PHC reploed.
Earlier on July 21, 2020 the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) had issued a final warning to TikTok. The app was directed to introduce a complete mechanism to control “obscenity, vulgarity, and immorality through its social media platform”.
