me right, just do it on dw, that i wish i could have done more the same, you just click away, find out basic document on you to really see the world as he's never seen it before. the dr. no to dw talking entry, the welcome to the 77 percent. the platform for advocacy. you to talk about the issues that are important to us. but what happens when you're right to talk is surprised. i am michael t n on today's program. you want to focus on the freedom of expression and the young people who are fighting for the voice.

so yes, what's coming up with me? it's coming in during the list. paul should talk nearly died after being up the doctor and beats into a fault in our street to be to find out why journalism in kind of room has become a life and death effect. and the spice of the high stakes involve some reports, se they won't be from the details in each one of them. in south africa, the freedom of the press to, to deal with is a cutting all parts of a need double crossing. it is important to draw attention to the grievances that directly affect you and i bought income, a room you could be killed for exercise in the freedom to that is what happened to journalist martin. this is opal. my own colleague, media muscle was put on trial for head reports and the todd this way. let's a drop box on this on not us lucky. last the gentlest post. 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 attack kia ca, meridian during the list and whistle blow a pole to, to was kidnapped while watching a football match at a nearby cafe. on the men forcing into a cart and beat him up, brutally. he says they wanted to kill him, just literally up to the see if i was dead. there was a motorcycle. that's what jim just around the corner. that's when they left and drove off before they were convinced that i was dead or should just before that they told me they had a mission and told me to say my last breath. when you talk and say your last spray, i, you know that to mean see, suppose us to, to 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 so far, no one has been arrested as evidence and she had documented unpublished pictures of

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 scarves. 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 is there is, there is also, uh, psychological trauma. what was your french 100 and 38th on the world press freedom index. kemah rude is rate is the 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 watching a silvo publish documents about government corruption. he was killed at the same

spot which was what was left. look at them and they did the same thing to me of the deed, to martinez, if you know how he died, you can imagine this that i was in when i was found, they took my cold, so it was negative given much each on this martinez had to eat his own faces, right? they took all of these quotes away. it is the same kind of torch i went through because i was just like these offices are files that are past due to, to a continues to search for his attack cuz he wants justice. meanwhile, government authorities insist that the country is safe for john list. but recent events prove otherwise. now gentle is live, shoot, top, hold that 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, 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 meet the young people who see that in spite of all these telling just a one stop reporting the video to the welcome everyone in this edition of the 77 percent, we are in younger the political capital of can the who is that the sequence of old we are here to discuss the issue of freedom of the press in the country, which under most reports being assaulted and tortured many of them in prison, in jails across kinda really also be sold to industrial hey, don't this you. that's why they all do come a whole know it's been my push it duplex don't listen to both to to who has an experience to share with us. he was imprisoned due to his work as a journalist, going to accept the said to see false you. you have to tell us what happened. you'll see law in 2019. i was in prison on blocked it overnight,

but police officers in plain clothes too. heavy with those a warrant or any pass someone's injury. oh, rules were validated to start off. we and i spent 2 years in prison on went to trials 27 times. and in the end that was condemned to centers that are already been determined upon my risk. 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's, the right to accuse me of defending hot, full social media on and on. but the allegedly defamatory text in question one, not even mind. i was a political prisoner what she did, focused on please when you, when you take a look through it. i mean, it's not 10 to dennis of bob who is the director of national media observatory at the ministry of communication in kind of route. i mean, because you don't. ok. mahoney don't, didn't want to tell us. do you think journalists are safe income really to come home in the camera?

rooney and press today, but if you read the headlines to trans 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 loveliest, by political and economic forces, which have unfortunately transformed the communion 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 reg credits, but that's the landscape of suppressed today. a nipple cool, why a journalist been killed the keystone to assess, he knew only been one of the country sweat, gentlest glories on issue became afraid to damage it when it turned to this report about the mismanagement of public funds. it also, i believe it was due to an investigation in color. oh no, it is the gentleman who is soon as a freight team and that's, that's all a notes all you go. right. and let's also note that report us without borders has observed a shop to type in press freedom income,

a room in re send. yeah. hers 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. all seem like it's true that at some point i felt the pressure from my family a good job for. i'm often when my father was here that a journalist happened mother, he would call me and asked if i was really show of my decision to become a journalist and really it's gary's a white most of the bill. no, paul said our role is to remind the public of the government's promises and check if they are being can i speak to it? look, see or fremont if we do our job and are seen as a threat to the power there's a problem. well yep. copeland, the yeah problem to do, does he 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 union as of, as you openly acknowledge problem. so tell us as a trade union, this, did you convey the general as grievance as to the ministry of communication?

for example, in what reaction did you receive as schools? i'd be a host, you see, so volley for a while, saw me the book with 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 room 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 is ready, is it because cool? view of will take 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 important to have an internal kuta 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. for the part when deputy put the put, just need to get it, 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 or 4th power income a room. is it possible to really give this power to the press in this country while the play still sleeping? with 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 applies such measures, the press doesn't represent anything, but the problem arises in the way the profession is exercised. ok, so i don't believe there is 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 have been cited by

a number of journalists. they weren't in prison 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 in come a room is not yet what the government would like it about 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. see who's 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 put yeah, 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 then every time i have 5 complaints through the police and in court it depots, the 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 understand that silence rules. it must be said that we leave the deadly environment

. when we will say something that doesn't suit the system, you will get beaten up from that. there is a kind of democrat sword hanging over your head if you select it. now. thank you, paul chilton 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 particle who did a place to go? i understand the grievances of the press on that 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 and 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 only together that we will be able to build a society of freedom,

a society of democracy because that allows the vehicle states to see the best deal and so seated them across the field and most loved ones are 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 accompany the kind of slow do you 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 ocean city, the only way i have to defend myself. i keep walking because i know that i am such as you much as we say, walking with my coughing and we'll 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 portrait slot my grand comb allowed. if we do not change our environmental environment kind of changes, that means you have to fight for things to change. i'm going to show the show. thank you. so that was a very heated debate, did 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

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. it's inspiring. now you can watch a longer version of this to beat on. 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 is what cost help the country understand the problems that have led to the cost on wasteful pockets. let's find out more for now south have for cuz presidents are around the pose that has declared

a national does all stuff. how it got through affecting people at home on the roads at work too. 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? well 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 fleet of aging calls quiet policy. patients in the countries cold belt the province of them from atlanta . however, these politicians are breaking down as an unprecedented treat journalist implemented . and then once you find that he is reporting from the coal both and investigated the underlying causes of this crisis. in contrast with the belief that the issue came fully from intelligence problems, once you find it, i guess that the brute force nice into like to be to 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 s

can. this is where the bedclothes gets mixed with a good cold. and the bed quote ends up f come and a good call ends up somewhere else. um, 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 policy. sions. cool, pest, infrastructural breakdown and criminal activity have become so run punch that the power company estimates it loses about $50000000.00 users every month. kevin blo, janet list and editor at one of south africa's permanent national newspapers, joint forces. we must, you find that in conducting this investigations,

according to bloom, 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 clinics that extends across the province. and that points to not just political interference from the highest levels, but it's political patronage, political back to senior politicians who are making a meant out of out of the syndicates. dispute is backed by former c e o of s come on 3 days rita, who left the paul you to see after claiming that the members of national government are linked to for criminal cartels operating inside s. com. so these full cocktails of quite sophisticated as far as we can tell, 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 crying well on people. and people get assassinated and them from a longer data 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 of gentlest and therefore is a difficult and dangerous one. low as far as i'm concerned is a national hero. i mean, it's like it's dangerous for me. for him. it's perfectly dangerous. perfect. and a small does rita also expose that the mafia deliberately damages power plants to gain lucrative maintainance?

construct, draining ever more public funds and intensifying the paul crisis. from us, you find to upholding truth and demanding accountability 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 going into to, to black cock now sold is becoming a feature is going to power stations president. so the lemme poster has authorizing deployment of 880 members of the so that they can national defense schools to safeguard the stations. it or this bridge move to the gain control. the military

has been dispatched. despite the presence this indicates persist in expanding, dec would fall in love with 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 one to 4 declination, posing severe threats to the local population. the better. so the types of this called mind is that is not the benefits in the community or 1st month because this 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 e and rush. i know that people are paying off their policy and we need to at taking precautions for his own safety. must be finding adults and embodied lifetime never lingering in one place for too long. however, he's also aware of the impact he's walks can have in the past,

is he also the story shifting lights on an easy coal mine located near a residential area with 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 us back then with this story, it was part of this put for the community on mineral resources in energy that didn't want an investigation into what is happening the why is mine is happening 500 meters from people's houses wise bluffton happen to be and why has it been smoke? and the chemicals filtering out for more than 4 weeks without any action intake of it's a, it's a tough roads to, to traverse. but we,

we must do it in a corrupt and struggling economy with the weekend government. unable to address the initial challenges. truth and accountability becomes ever more important. but you can even call from the mafia and restoring it to the people. want to be an easy task. now, so far in this program we have been talking about really heavy stuff. so now let's take a deep breath and toys. i wouldn't be the capital city of come a room. by the way, did you not have come the room is one of the west test countries on this? i'll tell you the reason i've got this report, but 1st, to show us the goods hideout and places to visit her as active as sylvia into boxing. the
