Sharjah: The Sharjah Punitive and Rehabilitation Establishment is taking a number of steps to offer inmates at the correctional facility in the emirate with better facilities and an improved environment. The ‘Sheikh Zayed Photo Exhibition’ is a step in that direction.
Prisoners in Sharjah jails now have the opportunity to explore the achievements of UAE’s Founding Father late Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan through photographs displayed at the exhibition at Sharjah Punitive and Rehabilitation Establishments. Along with the ‘Sheikh Zayed Photo Exhibition’, which opened recently for the inmates, a seminar titled ‘Zayed, the Man of Humanitarian Actions’, is also being held, in solidarity with the International Day for Human Rights.

2658 journalists killed in the last thirty years
When the International Federation of Journalists published its first annual report of killed journalists in 1990, very few anticipated that the “journalists killed list” would still be going 30 years later, spanning the entire globe.
The IFJ was the first organisation representing journalists to raise the alarm over their killing and chart their fate every year as they were targeted with impunity in every corner of the globe - brutalized, gunned down, kidnapped by the enemies of press freedom. The IFJ casualty toll included all journalists, freelance as well as support staff such as drivers, fixers and translators who died during newsgathering activities. This was unique in giving a fuller picture of the extent of casualties within the media workforce.
The death toll is around the same level as when the global journalists' union began its grim annual count of deaths 30 years ago and is part of a recent downward trend
