Roj TV forced to close

Feb 27, 2014

Kurdish TV station Roj TV won’t be able to broadcast from Denmark again, the Supreme Court ruled today.

The station has been broadcasting out of Denmark since 2004, but in 2012 it was convicted of supporting Kurdish terror organisation PKK.

Roj TV was fined ten million kroner and had its broadcast licence revoked by the Eastern High Court in July last year and today Supreme Court decided to upheld the verdict.
