31.01.2006
Ethiopian security forces have detained a correspondent for the US-based Web site Ethiopian Review, its publisher Elias Kifle said. Journalist Frezer Negash has been held without charge in Addis Ababa since Friday, Kifle told the Committee to Protect Journalists. "We are disturbed that Frezer Negash has joined at least 16 other journalists in jail in Ethiopia," said Ann Cooper, executive director of CPJ. "We call on Ethiopian authorities to release her immediately."
