The Coalition For Women In Journalism denounce the legal persecution of Gul Bukhari. The FIA has supposedly summoned Gul for her “defamatory remarks” against state institutions. We demand an end to using law against journalists in the country. The country’s state should be more open to criticism and stop suppressing press freedom in the country.
