Politicians continue to obstruct justice for murdered journalist
On 16 September, journalists in Ukraine and around the world marked the 10th anniversary of the murder of journalist Gyorgy Gongadze. His murder is emblematic of the impunity that permits Ukrainian politicians and other powerful figures to silence critical journalists. Last week, after an investigation riddled with errors and the death of key witnesses, prosecutors announced that the late general Yuriy Kravchenko ordered Gongadze's 2000 murder, report the Kiev-based Institute of Mass Information (IMI), the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) and ARTICLE 19.See all articles: Ukraine
