A group of journalists covering a peaceful protest by their colleagues, had their equipment destroyed, and then were teargassed and assaulted before they were arrested.
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) condemns the violent arrests of 10 journalists covering a peaceful protest on 16 October in the Guinean capital, Conakry, in defence of press freedom and against the two-month-old blocking of the Guinée Matin news website. The charges brought against these journalists must be dropped, RSF says.
