General News of Saturday, 15 May 2021Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe Ghana Center for Democratic Development, CDD-Ghana, has added its voice to growing calls against the recent conduct of National Security operatives against a journalist. “The suggestion that a journalist using surreptitious means to uncover and expose wrongdoing is unethical and therefore warrants brutal assault by National Security operatives is as absurd as it is undemocratic. The National Security Ministry, a public institution, cannot be immune to public scrutiny and transparency in its operations,” the statement read in part. Meanwhile, many have described the approach used by security operatives in arresting civilians as rather worrying and only breeds more distrust between the media and security agencies.
