Horki: socio-political newspaper Uzgorak warned by Ministry of Information
On 14
April the chief editor of the newspaper, Halina Budnaya, received an
appropriate letter from the ministry. According to it, the warning is issued
for a number of reasons. The first of them is the failure of the newspaper
staff to inform the ministry about the change of the editor after the death of
the previous one, well-known journalist and civil activist Eduard Brokarau. The
other ones are the absence of the bar-code in several issues of the newspaper
and alleged violations in the activities of the internet version of the
newspaper.
Uzgorak is a private socio-political
newspaper distributed in the Horki, Drybin and Mstsislau districts of the
Mahiliou region. The viewpoint of the edition on different issues often contradicts
to the official state information.
