In an incident, Imran Lemar, Mazal local Radio Journalist in Eastern Nangarhar province was targeted by unknown gunmen and badly wounded up. The incident took place while Mr. Lemar was leaving home for the radio office. Mr. Lemar was shot in the middle of capital city Jalalabad in Amir Shahid area. After the attack Lemar was taken to a local hospital in the city and then was shifted to Kabul for further treatment and according to doctors, he is getting better day by day. Furthermore, Ayna TV Cameraperson was beaten up by National army soldiers in Faryab Northern Province. Ayub Amini, the Cameraperson claimed; when he was filming misbe- havior of national army soldiers arguing with side road seller, all the soldiers got together and beaten up Mr. Amini. According to him; the soldiers had broken his camera and mi- crophone, too. Moreover, Shahrwand local Radio Journalist in Samangan province was verbally ha- rassed by Deputy Governor and local police. Abdul Rehman Saa’ee, Sports Journalist at Shahrwand Radio claimed; while attending a session on the eve of International Press Day, he was verbally harassed and prevented to join the session. In addition to criticize on lack of access to information, a number of journalists have com- plained on inaccessibility to information in the parliament. They said, they aren’t allowed to enter the parliament. Consequently, they were entirely unaware of issues occurring at the parliament lower house. According to the media sources journalists are kept waiting up to 3 or 4 PM on the daily basis in order to find and interview any member of parlia- ment on the issues of electing speakers for the parliament. It is worth mentioning that because of uncertainty of parliament speaker election process, media is the only source for out putting the news and information from the parliament in this regard. In another case, the Defense Ministry has prohibited their officials not to interview with media. The ministry had issued an official letter which was publicized and signed by Army Chief of staff and all of the officials at the ministry were prohibited to interview with media. - 3 - Media Watch Report نی حمایت کنندۀ رسانههای آزاد افغانستان Nai supporting open Media in Afghanistan In a different incident; Shahzad Aryubi, the former Minister of Communication and Infor- mation Technology through an interview with BBC had while he was the minister, said, that the National Unity Government has marked to restrict internet management. Mr. Aryubi had said that now the government is able to take action on restricting in- ternet management. The speech caused social networks users’ reaction in specific the Facebook users. Nai Supporting Open Media in Afghanistan has published a press release in reaction to the former Minister’s points and stated through the Press Release that “The Afghan Government wants to act against freedom of speech”. According to Nai’s belief, it is a worrying action which has been made by the Govern- ment in the scope of freedom of speech. In addition to these all, Subh-e-Kabul Daily Newspaper joined the Afghan Media Com- munity by raising the slogan of “We write and you judge.” Mukhtar Pidram, Subh-e-Kabul Newspaper’s publisher has said at a press conference; inauguration of another media outlet in the country determines that terrorists can’t prevent journalists from journalistic performances by killing or threatening them. Subh- e-Kabul is the 20th daily newspaper in Kabul. - 4 - Media Watch Report نی حمایت کنندۀ رسانههای آزاد افغانستان Nai supporting open Media in Afghanistan Mazal local Radio Journalist was shot and wounded up by unknown armed men in Nangarhar province Imran Lemar, Mazal local Radio Journalist in Nangarhar was shot and badly wounded up by un- known armed men on Thursday 25th March 2019. Haroon Helal, Mazal Radio Broadcasting Manager said to Nai Media Watch; Mr. Lemar was shot by the unknown armed men in the middle of capital city Jalalabad in Amir Shahid area, the incident oc- curred while he left home for the office. He was badly wounded up as result of the bullets shot. After the attack Lemar was taken to a local hospital in the city and then was shifted to Kabul for further treatment and according to doctors, he is getting better day by day. Mr. Helal said; it was about a couple of years that he knew him and his familiarity with Mr. Lemar indicates that he had not been in any personal confliction with someone and the incident took place due to his journalistic performances. Mr. Lemar was badly wounded up from his leg and eyes, his leg feels better but eyes needed to be treated outside the country. Mr. Lemar’s colleagues ask the government to pave the ground for his better treatment outside the country. Abdul Mujeeb Khalvatgar, Nai Managing Director said; the security forces have not clarified regard- ing Mr. Lemar’s case. We stand in need to know, who the people behind the incident are. And the security entities are obliged to follow up this incident and share its results with media. - 5 - Media Watch Report نی حمایت کنندۀ رسانههای آزاد افغانستان Nai supporting open Media in Afghanistan Despite, repeated calls and attempts we couldn’t have succeeded to interview Nangarhar Provincial office and police. Nai Supporting Open Media in Afghanistan asks security entities to follow up this case and let it lead journalists in the Eastern zone be assured and continue into their journalistic performances in a safe environment. Ayna TV Cameraperson was beaten up by National Army Soldiers in Faryab Northern province Ayub Amini, Ayna TV Cameraperson in Faryab claimed on being beaten up by National Army Soldiers. Amini said to Nai Media Watch; on Monday, 13th May 2019, it was about 06:00 PM, the time when he heard the repeated shot sound, he went at the scene for the purpose of news coverage. Mr. Amini continued; when he was filming misbehavior of national army soldiers arguing with side road seller nearby police headquarter in Maimana city, all the soldiers got together and beaten up Mr. Amini. According to him; the soldiers had broken his camera and microphone, too. Amini said the time while I wanted to film the scene the National Army Soldiers came to me, despite I introduced myself but they beat me up, broke my camera and mike and threw me inside the ranger. - 6 - Media Watch Report نی حمایت کنندۀ رسانههای آزاد افغانستان Nai supporting open Media in Afghanistan Amini added; I was in detention about half an hour, right after half an hour the police chief came and returned my camera. According to Amini his camera had been damaged by the soldiers. Thus, the incident Nai had publicized a press release and officially asked the Defense Ministry to fol- low up the case, identify its perpetrator/s and introduce them to judicial procedures. In response to Nai’s appeal the Defense Ministry has also announced that the case will be will be investigated and followed up seriously and negligent/s will be treated in accordance to law and judicial procedures. Abdul Mujeeb Khalvatgar, Nai Managing Director said; violators should be taken to legal norms. Moreover, his camera has also been damaged so the Defense Ministry is obliged to pay for this loss. According to him, though the Defense Ministry’s Spokesperson had promised that they would fol- low up the case and identify the perpetrator/s, once more we appeal for the explicit follow up of this case. Despite, the Defense Ministry had stated that the perpetrator/s would be taken to judicial law but still the ministry has not shared any detail and required measure regarding it with media. Nai Supporting Open Media in Afghanistan asks the Defense Ministry to seriously follow up this case and introduce perpetrator/s to judicial procedures. A journalist was insulted by the Deputy Gov- ernor and police in Samangan province Abdul Rehman Saa’ee, Shahrwand Radio Sports Journalist claims on being verbally harassed by Samangan Deputy Governor and police. Mr. Saa’ee said to Nai Media Watch, the time while he wanted to join session on celebrating International Press Day, he had been verbally harassed and not allowed to attend the session. Saa’ee said; on Wednesday 15th May 2019, ten days belated International Press Day was celebrated by the provincial office and Information and Culture Department of Samangan. I and one of my female colleagues were appointed to attend the session for its news coverage. - 7 - Media Watch Report نی حمایت کنندۀ رسانههای آزاد افغانستان Nai supporting open Media in Afghanistan Saa’ee continued; police didn’t allow us in security check points to carry our journalistic stuffs in.

PROCTER Afghanistan’s Fourth Estate E-mail: [email protected] Independent Media Summary • Over the last decade, Afghanistan has experienced the rise of a robust media sector. Program- ming fills the airwaves with everything from news to comedy, open debate to open audition, soap operas to police dramas to ABCs. • Journalists, however, operate in a climate of fear and insecurity, under threats of reprisal and violence, with insufficient state support for freedom of the press. • The National Unity Government’s pledge to promote good governance and fight corruption cannot succeed absent a free and independent media. • President Ghani and CEO Abdullah’s campaign pledges to support freedom of speech and press freedom must be backed up by actions, including passage of a mass media law that protects freedom of speech and the personal safety of journalists. Protecting and preserving Introduction ““an independent Afghan media In the past fourteen years, Afghanistan’s media sector has evolved at warp speed. In a country with that can keep the public informed one of the world’s lowest literacy rates, radio and television serve the population with news and without fear of reprisal or violence information otherwise obtainable only in print. Under Taliban rule (1996–2001), secular radio was is essential to the country’s silenced and television programming—which had debuted in 1964 with the government-owned Radio Television Afghanistan (RTA) but plunged into decline in the 1990s as civil conflict overtook transition to an open society.

According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Afghanistan’s real GDP growth during 2013 slowed from 14 percent in 2012 to an estimated 3.6 percent. After accelerating to double digits during 2011, inflation moderated during 2012, reaching 5.9 percent year on year, though accelerated slightly in 2013 to an estimated 7.2 percent. At the end of 2013, net international reserves stood at US$6.4 billion (approximately 7 months of imports). The exchange rate depreciated by 8 percent over 2013 and has depreciated by another 3 percent since the beginning of 2014. The loan-to-deposit ratio has stagnated at about 20—25 percent of GDP since 2011, and both deposits and loans remain highly dollarized (between 70 and 80 percent), reflecting a continued lack of confidence.

It is also due to dramatic improvements in agricultural production and the end of a four-year drought in most of the country. However, Afghanistan still remains poor for now and highly dependent on foreign aid. About half the population suffer from shortages of housing, clean drinking water, electricity and employment. The Afghan government and international donors have remained committed to improving access to these basic necessities by prioritizing infrastructure development, education, housing development, jobs programs, medical care, and economic reform over the recent years. The replacement of the opium trade - which probably makes up about one-third of the country's GDP - is one of several potential spoilers for the economy over the long term.

  • STATEMENT from JOHN MATISONN CHAIRPERSON of MEDIA COMMISSION 14 September, 2005
    STATEMENT FROM JOHN MATISONN CHAIRPERSON OF MEDIA COMMISSION 14 September, 2005 The Media Commission announces that 2,889 candidates for the Wolesi Jirga and the Provincial Councils have been authorized to broadcast on radio or TV at no cost to the candidates, as of Tuesday September 13. We believe this has given an unprecedented opportunity to the people of Afghanistan to hear a wide range of opinions both geographically and substantively on radio and television. This is intended to help them become a more informed electorate in taking the necessary decisions about who to vote for on Sunday. On Wednesday September 14 we release the Media Commission Interim Report covering the period from July 19 to September 8. It gives a great deal of data about how the media covered the campaign (http://www.jemb.org/media_commission/index.html). The Interim Report consists of a monitoring report covering the pre-election period; a monitoring report covering the official Campaign Period from August 17 to 30; a set of daily reports of the rise of the number of candidates using the Sponsored Advertising Program, and a number of graphs that give information on the various stations and provinces using the program. This data is intended to be used by observers, analysts and the media as they conduct their own analyses of this campaign, as it relates to the media. It provides only preliminary conclusions. This is deliberate. Further comments will be made in the final report once the final data has been assessed. The journalism in this campaign has not violated code of conduct rules against hate speech, incitement to violence or any other serious concerns of a Media Commission, to our knowledge.
