The World Non-Violence Organization, Freemuslim, has expressed its growing concern about the Tunisian authorities\u2019 measures to restrict the media and press and the ongoing attempts to silence voices, following the arrest of a journalist on Wednesday January 3rd, 2024, calling for the necessity of adhering to the laws of freedom of speech and expression and ensuring their preservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The organization said in a statement received by Shia Waves Agency that “Oppression of journalists and silencing the voices of those who speak the truth in various parts of the world is not an unfamiliar phenomenon to anyone today.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Freemuslim added: “Conflicts between various countries, ideologies, and governments are inevitably reflected in media and not always and everywhere welcome by those in power.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It continued: “Tunisia is not the only country that has oppressed the voice of a journalist recently. The same incident occurred with the journalists speaking of the war between Russia and Ukrain, oppression of media in China, reporting the news of the war between Palestine and Israel, and also with the journalists of India.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Despite the nature of the news covered and the religion and ethnicity of the reporters, they need to be safe from political persecution so their stories are heard.”, the organization stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Freemuslim is a humanitarian organization that constantly reviews human rights reports concerning repression and intimidation of institutions and individuals working in the press and media community, embodied in the arrests and closure of press institutions and prison warnings for political opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The organization emphasized that these illegal practices blatantly violate the constitutional articles guaranteeing public rights, rights of journalism, the right to freedom of peaceful opposition and expression and warns against sliding into the abyss of tyranny and dictatorship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
