Jamim Shah Biography
Jamim Shah (Nepali: जमिम शाह ) (1963–2010) was a Nepalese media entrepreneur and the chairman of Channel Nepal Pvt. Ltd. He was the pioneer of commercial cable television network in Nepal with over 1,000 kilometres of cable network. He also had two newspapers (now closed) and a television channel Channel Nepal, which was the first satellite television station in Nepal.
Jamin Shah, a media tycoon, was the owner of two newspapers, a television station and had a virtual monopoly in the distribution of satellite television channel in Kathmandu through his large cable network. Jamin Shah worked for the first company in Nepal to uplink via satellite. Two days before the launch, the Ministry of Information and Communication told the Space and Time company it had an incomplete test of its equipment. Space and Time was trying to get the approval from the government to begin. They figured all paperwork was in order. However, the green light was yet to come. Space and Time was also beginning to have issues with India, China, and Pakistan. Space and Time suspended India’s viewing for a week. The satellite license was important to Shah because with it, Channel Nepal would be beamed to 52 countries in Asia. Jamin received his license in 1993. However, his license was later revoked by the government on the grounds that the company had not paid its dues. The company was allowed to go ahead with transmission but wanted to expand further.
He was accused of being a henchman of Dawood Ibrahim and Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency, which he denied, and was blamed for using his television channel to whip up anti-India violence. Channel Nepal was banned temporarily in 2000 after wrongly attributing anti-Nepal comments to Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan, sparking riots which left four people dead and 180 people injured in Nepal.
Jamin Shah was gunned down by two assailants on motorcycles near the French embassy on 7 February 2010 in Kathmandu. The assailants were on a motorcycle with plate number Ba15Pa8733. Shah was accused of having ties to both a major Indian crime syndicate and to Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence agency. Shah received two gun shots to the head and one shot to the chest after being shot in broad daylight. He later died of his injuries. Shah had received death threats prior to being gunned down. He was under a lot of stress in the days before the attack.
