In a statement by AIT, the management "expressed its
displeasure by quoting section 22 of the constitution, which says the press,
radio, television and other agencies of the mass media shall at all times be
free to uphold the responsibility and accountability of the Government to the
people.
"DAAR management therefore considers it a worrisome
development if security and family concern are used as a justification for
censoring AIT or any other media organization from covering and reporting the
activities of the President-elect, his incoming administration or any other
public officer.
"It therefore states categorically that the allegation of
security issues against DAAR Communications is not an issue that the
appropriate security agencies should view lightly. The management wants this
incident appropriately investigated adding that it has never been involved in
any security activities that will compromise State institutions whatsoever.
"The management looks forward to a progressive and healthy
relationship with the incoming administration and hope that the rights and
freedom of the media shall not be impeded in the discharge of our collective
duties and responsibilities."
