Channel 16 (Bangladeshi TV channel)
Channel 16 (; in reference to 16 December) was a music entertainment channel in Bangladesh, operated by Insight Telecast and Channel 16 Company Ltd. The channel was permitted to broadcast via a Singaporean satellite and officially began broadcasting on 16 December 2011. It was the first and the sole music channel in Bangladesh until the launch of Gaan Bangla in 2013. Channel 16's managing director was K G Muhit. Despite only being allowed to broadcast from abroad, Channel 16 illegally broadcast from Dhaka, and even via the Israel-based RRsat satellite. After its license for  test broadcasting had ended on 30 November 2013, the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission obliged Channel 16 to cease broadcasting on 2 December 2014. However, it illegally continued broadcasting under the name 'k', and later 'MB', and sometimes 'Movie Bangla', along with its on-screen logo involving a clock. It had also been accused of broadcasting while evading revenue from the government.
