Online Desk : Journalists will host a mega conference in mid-January to announce a series of protest programmes against the recent vandalism of The Daily Star and Prothom Alo offices, said the NOAB chief on Monday. The movement would continue until media freedom is ensured, and justice is served for the recent mob attacks on media offices and cultural institutions, said AK Azad, president of Newspapers Owners’ Association of Bangladesh (NOAB).
AK Azad revealed plans for the conference at a meeting of journalists and stakeholders held at a hotel in the capital. Politicians, professionals, industrialists, and civil society members were among the stakeholders to join the meeting, which was co-hosted by the Editors’ Council. AK Azad said everyone present at the meeting unequivocally called for resisting mob violence unitedly. “Our voices cannot be silenced,” AK Azad said quoting the participants of the meeting.
