Russia Today: Press covering protest arrested in Georgia



Freedom of What? 'Journalist arrests part of intimidation campaign'
From: RussiaToday | November 23, 2010 | 306 views


Journalists' rights in the United States are in jeopardy after an RT news team spent around 32 hours in jail for trying to film a rally. The peaceful protest against the School of Americas military academy dubbed the 'school of assassins' had finished when officers handcuffed the crew covering the event and marched them to a police van.

Our correspondent Kayleen Forde described her handling by police as 'brutal'. She was later released on bail and brought us her account of the arrest.

RT should sue the local policen for brutality and illegal detention.
