You may have read about SNF’s armed leaders’ attack, threats and harassment of daily Awami Awaz. I think It is an attack on the freedom of media and should not be permissible. I have talked to Dr Jabbar Khattak, editor of daily Awami Awaz and on my behalf have condemned the attack and expressed solidarity with him, with Awami Awaz and with Sindhi media… I think no one – feudal, any political party, group or urban terrorists – should be allowed to dictate and harass media. All of us should support freedom of media.

One thought on “We should condemn the attack on Sindhi daily Awami Awaz”

  1. We must condemn any attack on media that damages its freedom or causes hinderance for it to work freely, be it who the attacker may be, should be prosecuted according to the law, no question.

    But the tradition of targeting political rivals must also be condemned. When politicians come to power and want to strike back against their rivals they open their dormant cases and thus get opportunity to cool down their internal fire, not for justice. Is it justified??
