The four journalists were covering the protest held by the defrauded clients of Alasgaroglu-K Construction Company in front of the Presidential Administration when they were suddenly assaulted by Main Security Department employees. Their photo and video cameras were confiscated and returned only after the photos and video footages had been deleted from their memory sticks.
This is not the first occasion that journalists have faced pressure in front of the Presidential Administration. However no one has even been held accountable for such illegal actions.
