"Prosecutors harassed writers, journalists, and political figures by bringing dozens of cases to court under various laws that restrict media freedom," the State Department said, adding that judges eventually rejected many of those charges.
"Tužitelji su zlostavljali pisce, novinare i političare podizanjem nekoliko desetaka parnica na temelju niza zakona koji ograničavaju slobode medija", navodi State Department, dodajući kako su suci u konačnici odbacivali velik dio tih tužbi.
