Have the Pakistanis turned to shortwave?
The Beeb sez that some of the of the TV stations not broadcasting the
"right" news are still broadcasting but are off cable by government
demand. Apparently, one can still get to the Beeb's Urdu website at
any internet cafe or home connection.
I don't know if foreign radio stations can be heard by local relay.
Of course, this is one of the arguments for shortwave and against such
replacements as local relay and internet radio. The government can
sooner control them than it can shortwave.

Most of the Major International Shortwave Broadcasters broadcast
to the Central Asia Region that includes Pakistan and several have
Transmitter Sites within the Region so that they can be easily heard.
