Two leading public TV journalists suspended in Comoros

NewsReporters Without Borders (RSF) calls on the government of Comoros to reinstate two senior journalists – news director Binti Mhadjou and editor in chief Moinadjoumoi Papa Ali – who have been suspended from this Indian Ocean archipelago’s public radio and TV broadcaster, ORTC, over their allegedly biased coverage of a strike. Mhadjou and Papa Ali, who had only recently been hired to fill these posts, learned of their suspensions from a fellow journalist’s Facebook post on 30 January.
