Journalists and owners of several newspapers and media houses Tuesday staged a silent protest rally to denounce the killing of Shujaat Bukhari, senior journalist and Editor-in-Chief of Rising Kashmir, and BJP leader Lal Singh’s threat.
The journalists assembled at Press Enclave here and marched towards Ghanta Ghar (Clock Tower) Lal Chowk and held a silent-sit-in for half an hour.
They were holding placards which read: “journalism is not a crime; We will protest Shujaat’s killing even if we are alone in this,’ and Assassins of free thinking will never succeed.’
