\"\"<\/p>\n

KZN MEC for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (Cogta) Sipho Hlomuka\u00a0has expressed his concerns at the alleged violence which led to the ill-treatment and man handling of journalists during a protest outside eThekwini City Hall<\/p>\n

\u201cWe condemn the violence and heavy handedness in dealing with journalists. The right to protest is enshrined in the Constitution, however, it must be exercised without infringing on the right of others. Equally so, Media freedom is a right entrenched in the constitution of the country and journalists play a critical role in holding the sphere of local government accountable and should be able to conduct their work without any fear or favour\u201d said Hlomuka.<\/p>\n

Hlomuka has tasked officials within the department to provide him with a\u00a0detailed\u00a0report on this matter.<\/p>\n
