The action helps to safeguard the journalists, but more than that, it protects the people’s right to receive information of great public interest.”Claudio Paolillo, Chairman of the IAPA’s Committee on Freedom of the Press and Information, and Editor of the Montevideo, Uruguay, weekly Búsqueda,Alexander Wennberg Jersey, also stressed the “great preventive character” of the precautionary measures “necessary in a country and in a continent, where there should be more political will and action on the part of governments to investigate murders of journalists and break the vicious circle, where violence and impunity are nourished.”The IAPA says its attention to the case is due to the background of violence against Kaieteur News. The media body reminded that five employees of the paper died following a gun attack on the pressroom on August 8, 2006, an incident that at the time was linked to the political climate in the run-up to an election.
