Presenter raped, killed
REBECCA Wilbrod Kasujja, presenter of a morning show on community radio station Buwama FM in Uganda was raped and killed by unidentified assailants in February.
She was on her way to the station when she was attacked. Villagers found her body later that day. Fellow journalists believe she was attacked because of her journalistic work.
“This incident once again highlights the dangers facing journalists who work odd hours,” said Ugandan Journalists’ Union President Michael Wakabi. “Female journalists, who form the bulk of newscasters, are particularly vulnerable.”
