Ethiopia: CFWIJ Condemns The Statement Of The Ethiopian Broadcasting Authority In Response To The Threats Faced By Lucy Kassa.

Three gunmen entered journalist Lucy Kassa’s house, physically assaulted her, and took equipment from her house. To make matters worse, the Ethiopian Broadcasting Authority, instead of supporting a journalist in such distress, claimed that since Lucy was not “accredited as a journalist” and statements in her support were ‘wrong”.
