In a letter to Minister of the Interior Ferdinand Koungou Edima, RSF expressed its concern about the police's summoning of Jean-Marc Soboth, editor-in-chief of the independent newspaper "La Nouvelle Expression", which is published three times weekly. "Journalists from independent media outlets are increasingly being summoned by the police, who want them to reveal their sources. Must we recall that journalists inform the public and not the police?" stated RSF Secretary-General Robert Ménard.
