IFEX.ORG Covers Pakistan’s Press Freedom Issues. Kiran Nazish Discusses The Threats Women Journalists Face In The Field.

Kiran Nazish talks about impunity thriving in the face of a lack of support. She spoke about Zeenat Shehzadi's abduction and press freedom in the country.

“We complain about the growing threats journalists face, but do not acknowledge that the very lack of a solid support network within the community has encouraged impunity.”

She continued, “Journalists are more vulnerable when they are on their own, and women journalists in particular as gender is used against them in misogynistic cultures. Impunity thrives when there is lack of support,” she said.
