The board of directors of the national public broadcaster, Radio and Television of Cape Verde (RTC), imposed a 45-day suspension without remuneration on the director of Television of Cape Verde (TCV), Bernardina Ferreira, on 30 October. The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) joins its affiliate, the Associacão Sindical dos Jornalistas de Cabo Verde (AJOC), in condemning this shocking decision. They also call for the lifting of the suspension with immediate effect and an end to political interference in the media.
