AJK was informed that Kosovo Police in Podujevo town has prevented in his job the journalist of news agency Kosova Press, Eduard Haliti. Policemen have asked from Haliti to delete the footage he was recording during the police action in city centre. Haliti was recording while a policeman was trying to arrest a citizen. AJK considers that Kosovo Police shouldn’t prevent the journalist from his job even though the journalist exposed the identification card as well as the badge of the news agency Kosova Press.
