PAC: PAC welcomes interdict against BLF brought by SANEF

PAC welcomes the decision by the Johannesburg South High Court to interdict the grouping which aims to disrupt the work of the media.

We have highlighted earlier that we have confidence in our judicial system. PAC is indeed vindicated on this matter.

We are also applauding SANEF for providing a revolutionary and courageous leadership in ensuring safety for all media workers and in a way defending the press freedom. PAC holds that the press freedom is the pre-requisite for any democracy in the world.

We will continue to support all those who advocates press freedom all over the world. PAC is well placed to talk about freedoms of the press because we have always had close relations with the media.

Many of our veterans who includes Don Mattera, Joe Tlholoe etc. were senior reporters in reputable publishers in the country.
