Country/Topic: Cyprus
Date: 07 February 2007
Source: International Federation of Journalists (IFJ)
Person(s): Huseyin Chakmak
Target(s): journalist(s)
Type(s) of violation(s): assaulted
Urgency: Threat
Quote: The European Federation of Journalists (EFJ) today condemned the attack on Huseyin Chakmak, a cartoonist and columnist for Turkish Cypriot newspaper Afrika.
Quote: In the recent incident, Chakmak was walking in a neighbourhood in the Turkish Cypriot sector of Nicosia, when a group of men threw stones and tomatoes at him. The cartoonist wrote down the license plate number on their car and gave it to the Turkish Cypriot police who told him they could not reveal the names of the attackers.
Such things deserve to be in the spot light. |
