"The National Union of Journalists in the UK and Ireland (NUJ) condemns the assassination attempt on Pakistan's Geo TV anchor Hamid Mir. The union extends support and solidarity to journalists in Pakistan and opposes to the Defence Ministry's moves to get the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) to take action against Geo TV network for levelling allegations against the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
Hamid Mir was travelling in his car in Karachi when he was shot by assailants on Saturday 19 April. Severely wounded, Mir is currently in hospital. His employer, Geo TV, has broadcasted accusations that the intelligence chief was involved in the attempted murder."
