The Afghan Media Support Organization has warned that Mohammad Rahmati, the managing editor of Tamadon TV, urgently needs medical care in a Taliban government prison. His health condition is deeply concerning to activists.
The organization stated that keeping a sick journalist in detention is inhumane and violates basic human rights. Rahmati and a colleague were arrested two weeks ago when the network's operations were unexpectedly halted.
The continuous detention of journalists has created an atmosphere of fear and severe censorship in the country. Media advocates urge the Taliban government to respect press freedom and release the detainees immediately.
