Use this method to ban a channel chat in a supergroup or a channel. Until the chat is [unbanned](unbanchatsenderchat.md), the owner of the banned chat won't be able to send messages on behalf of **any of their channels**. The bot must be an administrator in the supergroup or channel for this to work and must have the appropriate administrator rights. Returns *True* on success.
