(Video courtesy of CPJ) New York, 24th Nov 2015 - Four international journalists were honoured with the Committee to Protect Journalists' 2015 International Press Freedom Awards.
The awardees are Zulkiflee Anwar Ulhaque, "Zunar," of Malaysia, CPJ's first cartoonist awardee, who is charged with sedition and faces a potential 43-year jail term for drawings lampooning high-level abuse in the Malaysian government; Zone 9 bloggers of Ethiopia, a group of bloggers of which six were arrested, imprisoned, and charged with terrorism in retaliation for critical reporting; Cándido Figueredo Ruíz, a Paraguayan journalist who faces death threats and has lived under 24-hour police protection for the past decade because of his reporting on drug smuggling on the Brazil-Paraguay border; and Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently, a Syrian citizen journalist collective and one of the few independent news sources that continues to report from inside the Islamic State's self-proclaimed capital. The associated Press's special regional correspondent for Pakistan and Afghanistan, Kathy Gannon, received the Burton Benjamin Memorial Award for lifetime achievement in the cause of press freedom.
