1:32 pm
a drop box on this on not us lucky. last the gentlest polk utah was kidding up and totally assaulted by people who have been still being identified. but why does this happen in the 1st place? and one and some of you might find a story disturbing. this is the scene of the attacks here come meridian during the list and whistle blow a pole to, to was kidnapped while watching a football match at a nearby cafe on there had been forced him into a cart and beat him up brutally. he says they wanted to kill him. just my up to the sea follows that. there was a motorcycle. that's what jim just around the corner. that's when they left and drove off to home and they were convinced that i was dead, or she just before that they told me they had a mission and told me to say my last breath. when you talked and say your last pray i, you know, that means he supposed to die is still trying to find out who wanted to kill him. so far, no one has been arrested as evidence and she had documented unpublished pictures of
1:33 pm
his injuries. this was not the 1st time he was a text, but it was the most brutal in he still carries both the physical and emotional sconce. mr moseley sees a trauma for life when i pass the display as i get flushed bucks of the time. why young ladies, even as guy here on the left side of my face, my i still suffer from the post traumatic lakehoma. and apart from that injury is there is also uh, psychological trauma seclusion. brent 100 and 38th on the world press freedom index camera and is rated one of the least free countries for press worldwide. investigative journalists like po to, to often suffer from oppression by law enforcement. he already spent 24 months behind boss for alleged defamation. his friend and colleague martinez soto, publish documents about government corruption. he was killed at the same spot,
1:34 pm
which was what was left, look at them and they did the same thing to me as they need to martinez. if you know how he died, you can imagine this that i was into when i was found. they took my costs, i was negative and given much, martinez has to eat his own faces, right. they took all of these quotes so we, it is the same kind of thoughts i went through because he's always disliked these offices. so files really bypass the super childhood continues to search for his attack cuz he wants justice. meanwhile, government authorities insist that the country is safe for john left, but the recent events prove otherwise. now gentle as life should hold the pull the government and come are willing to account. and in doing this, they gave you formation. that helps you and i put the control of the future. unfortunately, since the staff of this year, 2 journalists have been killed and 3 remaining to income everyone. industries,
1:35 pm
street debate, gladys see, day and half panel. and don't want to delve deeper into come, i was shrinking space for free speech and me to the young people who see that in spite of all these challenges, they won't stop reporting the video to still welcome everyone. in this edition of the 77 percent, we are in younger the political capital of can the who is that you see good news of all we ask you to discuss the issue of freedom of the press in the country, which on the last report being assaulted and tortured many of them are in prison, in jails across kinda really and also be sold to industrial. hey, don't this your upside. they do come to who and it's been my push it duplex don't listen to both to to who has an experience to share with us. he was in prison due to his work. as a journalist, going exhausted, he said, do say false, you hook will tell us what happened. you'll see in 2019. i was in prison on
1:36 pm
abducted overnight, but police officers in plain clothes too heavy um and without a warrant or any pass summons or rules were validated to start out. we and i spent 2 years in prison on went to trial 27 times. and in the end, i was condemned to centers that are already been determined upon my i risk the customer. okay, put it as google. but when would you tell us what you were accused of as a journalist is showing that he looked i'm always tentatively, a complaint was filed by mrs. kelly is the right to accuse me of defending hot, full social media on and on. but the allegedly found the 3 text in question one motive in mind. i was a political prisoner. what she did was just rejected, empties when you 40 to she went to the street. i really cannot turn to dennis, but who is the director of national media observatory? at the ministry of communication in kind of route because you're ok mahoney don't, didn't want to tell us. do you think journalists are safe and come to really to
1:37 pm
come home a lot, pressing the camera, rooney, and press today. but if you read the headlines, this 2 trends can be observed. we probably noticed that there was a very strong instrumental ization of the press today, which is taken hostage by a certain number of lobbyists, by political and economic forces, which have unfortunately transformed the come of union press into a form where a certain number of conflict of problems and of, let's say social concerns are conveyed. we condemn it. we read credits, but that's the landscape of suppressed today will be nipple cool. why a journalist being killed vicki sold to assess, he knew only been one of the right country, squared gentlest glories on issue, became a fight and done with you when it's under this report about the mismanagement of public funds. that's why i believe it was due to an investigation and kind of wrote it just the journalist on who's seen as a freight team and that's, that's all a look. all right, and let's also note that report us without borders has observed
1:38 pm
a sharp decline in press freedom in come a route in recent years, hose i need, i don't know so crystal, you became a journalist not too long ago considering this context where you ever attempted to give up and do something else. so it seems like it's true that at some point i felt pressure for my family. a good job for i'm often when my father was here that a journalist happened mother. he would call me and ask if i was really show of my decision to become a journalist and really it's gary's a way most of the bill. no, paul said dollar role is to remind the public of the government's promises and check if they are being kept getting it look, see ok. but if we do our job and are seen as a threat to the power, there's a problem. well yeah, probably the yeah. problem did they did as you do so the is a problem according to crystal. they'll also trade union speaking up for journalists. and that's the case with t c. u, a trade unionist as openly acknowledge problem. so tell us as a trade union,
1:39 pm
this can be the general as grievance as to the ministry of communication, for example. and what reaction did you receive as schools? i'd be a host, you see. so volley for a while, saw me the book, what do you need? a lot of courage to raise certain questions. probably perhaps before listing the various claims we have made, i would like to briefly point out that between 20192023, we've identified 15 journalists and camera room whose rights were, i only got out of the 15. 7 of them have lost their lives in atrocious condition. sit open, would you like you done? because the so i told the shop for every time such a case has surface, we have to come moon joining. the straight union have always taken a stand to challenge the government on the issues of journalists, protection and working conditions all the time. it, there's really yours it because school vill protect golf course and today, what do we want? we would like to build a society with the press of parking development instead of a press that simply accompanies and applauds everything the government does. it is
1:40 pm
important to have an internal cooter who can hold up a mirror to come a room in society and challenge the government if they're headed in the wrong direction. can serve as a custodian of society about for the past. when deputy put the put to seem to get, that's what it went down and one into lucky to to the could be and is the supervisory ministry, the ministry of communication. i come back to you then as does the press play, it's role of 4th power incoming room. is it possible to really give this power to the press in this country while the play still should be in the press is a construction where everyone must be able to play their role. the government plays its role. you can't say that when the government apply such measure as the presto to represent anything. but the problem arises in the way the profession is exercised. ok, so i don't believe there's a police suffer behind every journalist and cameron, i don't think so. i'll conclude by saying that there are certainly difficulties. yes. we talked about the case of marching, ne and other cases, and we must be careful to keep in mind questions of common law there on names that
1:41 pm
have been cited by a number of journalists. they weren't and present because of the reporting, but because they were involved in other things. there's always that feeling sorry for the long answer. i will conclude by saying that i think the gloomy picture that is being painted does not reflect reality. even if i understand and share the perspective that the exercise of this profession and come a room is not yet what the government would like it to be the most with that i can . so for shoot that well to, to look after your release from prison income a room, you continue to work as a journalist on itself was available to you. yeah, exactly. i'll focus on that list. i don't feel today what do you expect from the camera, rooney and government? well, nick is still able to play pools on the, on duty. and we could wait for these government to act, but you have to be objective unrealistic because you know, i have been assaulted at least 5 times. and every time i have 5 complaints with the police and in court, the people say they plant, look, i'm on, don't enter this, that it did not lead to any results. my complaints will never had any way. so you
1:42 pm
understand that silence rules. it must be said that we leave the deadly environment yet when we will say something that doesn't suit the system, you will get beaten up. so there is a kind of democrat sword hanging over your head selected. now thank you, paul cho, task and on the side of the ministry of communication. do you understand the grievances of the journalist? what should be done to ensure the safety and what should be done to preserve this profession and come a room? is a component who did a place to go. i understand the grievances of the press and that the press feels threatened that the press needs more state protection. if i don't agree with my brother shooter who claims that i don't mean what i say or that we aren't doing anything, we intervene in different ways to prove at support and helped journalist. but freedom is a conflict tool field. it's a trajectory with many pitfalls and it's up to everyone to play their role as much as the state is expected to do its job. journalists are expected to do this. it is
1:43 pm
only together that we will be able to build a society of freedom, a society of democracy because that will allow the vehicle students to see the best, the intro, see through them across the field. and most of those loans will finally, according to you, we need to find a middle ground between the gentleman who must do the job well and the ministry which will a company to get a story see on those. so how can we ultimately achieve freedom of the press was called to, to, why do you pursue your work if you feel your life is in danger, z at the until she city is the only way i have to defend myself. i keep walking because i know that i am secretary much as we say, working with my coughing and will say, what else do you want me to do this up here despite us, we must not given to fax. we must commit to us as to what the french poetry slot my grand comb allowed. if we do not change the environmental environment kind of changes, that means you have to fight for things to change them. but i'm going to show this one. thank you. so that was a very heated debate. do not hesitate to leave us a comment or send us a message to share your opinion. that's it for to date on the topic of freedom of
1:44 pm
the press income the room. see you soon. you have to the being a journalist myself, i know that it takes an incredible amount of bravery to keep reports and especially when you're likely to be harassed, assaulted, or even killed. so thank you to all of the journalists who joined us for this to beat. your resilience is inspiring. now you can watch along a vision of this to beach and i youtube. also check out all the social media platforms, especially tick tock is. now inside africa, journalist implement little, much of funding has spent the last couple of years exposing rot in the countries electricity sector. this warehouse help the country understand the problems that have led to the cost on waves of pockets. let's find out more to now south africa's
1:45 pm
presidents around the pose that has declared a national does all stuff, how it got through affecting people at home on the roads at work to in the past few months. as calm has been rationing power in stages. what stage 6, being the highest does needs, the advocates without power for up to at least 10 hours a day. because most developed economy cannot keep it's lights on as calm the state on power utility generates most of its electricity with the feet of aging calls quiet power stations in the countries cold belt the province of from a longer. however, these politicians are breaking down an unprecedented freaked, gentlest implement. lender must be fun, and tea is reporting from the cold and investigate to the underlying causes of this crisis. in contrast, with the belief that the issue came fully from and talents problems, once you find it, i guess that the brute force lies into electricity within the energy sector. so we're looking at a plex site. this is where we've figured out that most of the concepts happen to
1:46 pm
escape. this is where the bedclothes gets mixed with a good cold. and the bad quote ends up if government a good call ends up somewhere else. a lot of the problems that we have right now caused by these quotes that are happening as a result of the corruption that's how much you find is investigations. expose that money. just at the pol plants walk together with criminals to steal their own cool excell, quoted black sites, policy call for the power plants is exchanged with me, a rebel. while the good quoted is sold, the rebels severely damages the politicians. cold test, infrastructural breakdown, and criminal activity have become so run punch. the depaul company estimates includes is about $15000000.00 users every month. kevin, blue genet list and editor, a ton of south africa's permanent national newspapers joint forces. we must, you find that in conducting this investigations, according to bloom,
1:47 pm
the cold swaps just one testimony of the growing entanglement of politics, the organized crime, infiltrating even the highest echelons of power. but what i can talk about is a pest move racketeering after the 2 that it's that extends across the province and that planes to not just political interference from the highest levels, but it's political patronage political back to senior politicians who are making a moment out of out of the sun because this view is booked by former c e o of s. com. and they basically talked who left the pol utility after claiming that the members of national government are linked to for criminal contempt operating inside s. com. so these full got deals of quite sophisticated as far as we can tell,
1:48 pm
they are well organized. it's interesting that they've adopted the language of the mafia. so people are called so which is and they have a hit squad allegedly between 60 and 70 audi trying. well, on people and people get assassinated and them from a longer digital has since left the country and legal actions against the endemic corruption in the provinces has faced significant challenges due to the loss of police dockets and evidence of the model we sold. louis, this makes the walk and life gentlest and the sofa is a difficult and dangerous one. low as far as i'm concerned is a national here. i mean, it's like it's dangerous for me for him. it's perfectly dangerous. perfect, and a smoke? does rita also expose that the mafia deliberately damages power plants to gain
1:49 pm
lucrative, maintain mints? construct, draining ever more public funds and intensifying the paul crisis. from us, you find upholding truth and demanding a cult ability is the only way out of this vicious circle. the media has proven that we, we are most often the, not the last line of defense in a democratic system. we sometimes power can go unchecked and fix it. and, and we've seen what that can happen. um, if you, if you look at what is playing out in our country right now, you know, we're, we're almost uh, on the brink of, of, of, of getting into touch with black cock. now, soldiers on the coming a feature is going to power stations president. so the lemme poster has authorize the payment of $880.00 members of the suffolk and national defense schools to safeguard the stations. it or this bridge move to the gain control. the military
1:50 pm
has been dispatched. despite the presence, the syndicates persist in expanding their control for depaula economy in the province. they have established a network of legal cold lines leading to detrimental effects such as water and air pollution as well for declination. posing severe threats to the local population. the touch of this call in mind is that is not the benefits in the community or for last month because this is what is contaminated. and they said that they had to the l. b as big as know they also funding on from site enough that they us live funding from from k to asthma. they ask for funding from i rush, i know that people are paying off their policy and we need to at taking precautions for his own safety. must be funded adults and embodied lifetime. never lingering in one place for too long. however, he's also aware of the impact he's walker can have in the past year. he also does
1:51 pm
story shipping lights on an easy coal mine located near a residential area. we had toxic gases were being released and checked after he so it was published. the site was physically shut down. the site is now under rehabilitation. that's, that's just one testament that shows the impact that the media can have. um, no matter how definitely you think the story can be, it can have a big impact. because like i said earlier, there's people who say no more, it can go on like this. we need to take this parent. and with this story, it was part of this put for the community on mineral resources in energy. the fed wanted investigation into what is happening. the why is mine is happening 500 meters from people's houses wise bluffton happening to and why has it been smoke? and the chemicals been out for more than 4 weeks without any action intake of it's a, it's a tough roads add to traverse, but we,
