The Progressive People’s Party (PPP) has called for an end to brutalities on journalists.
The PPP, in a statement, said the fundamental human rights of journalists and citizens must be respected.
It said it was worried about how some Police and National Security Officers attack and brutalize journalists and other citizens.
Reacting to the brouhaha surrounding the Caleb Kudah issue, the party called for an independent probe into the matter.
”Institute an urgent independent investigation into the unprofessional arrest and alleged torture of Caleb Kudah and bring unprofessional officers of the National Security who will be found culpable to book according to law.”
It also suggested that: ”To prevent future brutalities on persons in custody, CCTV cameras should be provided in all interrogation rooms for supervision and make it a punishable offence for any security personnel who interrogate a suspect outside of such camera fitted interrogation rooms.”
