In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Provide detailed accounts of the reported attacks on journalists, including any physical assaults, verbal threats, arrests and detention, destruction of equipment and other forms of intimidation that have taken place during the protests, including also alleged attempts to muzzle media houses from covering the protests. (2) Conduct an investigation into the role of the police in these attacks, including any evidence of excessive use of force or failure to protect journalists in the line of duty. (3) Highlight steps that the National Police Service has taken to ensure the safety and protection of journalists covering protests and other public events in the future. (4) State the actions being taken to hold the perpetrators accountable for their actions against journalists, including the legal proceedings or disciplinary measures. I thank you."
