Why editors must be mature

87

It is not uncommon for prosecutors to go to proper sources to search for a particular edition of a newspaper and then invite who has a proper custody of the newspaper to serve as a witness by tendering it in court. In short, reports by newspapers could incriminate an accused person if it is proven that it is uttered by him or her. How to present what happens, where it happens, when it happens, who is involved and how require professional experience. If such professional experience is utilized, the public will know the facts without implicating anybody.

Foroyaa has been providing information on arrests, detentions, inhuman and degrading punishments and has carried out many investigations which led to the release of many people who were unlawfully detained; or provide redress to many grievances. The editors strive to conduct their duties without fear or favour, affection or ill will in accordance with the dictates of truth, good faith and public interest. We challenge anyone to give evidence of any article published by Foroyaa which is censured to sacrifice the principle of publishing the truth in good faith and in the public interest.
