In Libya, 7 journalists unaccounted for, 3 others abused

The Committee to Protect Journalists released the following report:

New York, March 10, 2011At least seven journalists covering the conflict in Libya are unaccounted for, according to research by the Committee to Protect Journalists, which expressed deep concern today about their well-being. The most recent to go missing is Ghaith Abdul-Ahad, a correspondent for London’s Guardian newspaper, whose disappearance was reported today.

Also, on Wednesday, three BBC journalists recounted a harrowing 21 hours in the custody of Libyan military and security forces this week during which they were subjected to physical assault and psychological torment. The three, along with their driver, were detained at a checkpoint in Al-Zahra, south of contested city of Zawiya.

“The abuse inflicted on international journalists raises serious concern about the welfare of Libyan journalists unaccounted for since the start of the conflict,” said CPJ’s Deputy Director Robert Mahoney. “We call on Colonel Qaddafi’s government to release all detained journalists immediately, and to allow the media to work freely.”
