Journalist Making U-Turn Gets Blown Up By Grenade (Pakistan; 10/10/2021; Story Included In Description)
"A journalist was killed in an explosion near his car in Pakistan last Sunday night. S.Z. (35), who was a television reporter, was travelling in a car when he was attacked reportedly with a grenade, while others mentioned a IED.
The journalist, along with his companion, was initially taken to the Civil Hospital where he was declared dead. CCTV footage of the incident shows an explosion took place on the roadside near his moving car as soon as he made a U-turn on a busy road.
In February, the Council of Pakistan Newspaper Editors' (CPNE) Media Freedom Report 2020 had revealed that at least 10 journalists were murdered and several others threatened, kidnapped, tortured and arrested in Pakistan on trumped-up charges while discharging their professional responsibilities in 2020 alone, the publication reported.
No action has been taken so far against those responsible for torturing, killing journalists and it seems that such persons enjoy impunity. "It is a matter of grave concern that the legal system of the country has become useless in protecting and providing justice to journalists," said the report."
