Abstract

The article focuses on the Military Commission’s directive to shut down private mini-cinemas operating without proper licenses and screening uncensored films, as reported on 20 February. The Commission ordered regional authorities to cancel existing screening permits and enforce the Television and Video Law against unauthorized film screenings, citing potential negative social consequences. Specific private cinemas, including RIO Private Cinema and The Vibe Mini Cinema, were named for unlawful operations. Legal penalties under Section 32 of the Television and Video Law include imprisonment, fines, and confiscation of related property or equipment. [Extracted from the article]
