Freedom and Justice Newspaper Criticizes Forced Closure

The Freedom and Justice Newspaper (FJN)‘s journalists urged the Egyptian Journalists Syndicate (EJS) to intervene immediately to resume printing of the newspaper.

The FJN was shuttered more than two weeks ago for no legal reason, thus stopping the only source of income for more than 200 journalists and technicians. The FJN‘s journalists called on the syndicate board to do their part in the defense of journalists‘ rights, to stop violations by coup authorities of the laws that regulate journalism, so the crisis would not get even worse.
