JAPANESE JOURNALIST IN DANGER, RSF CALLS FOR HIS IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PUBLISHED ON TUESDAY 22 DECEMBER 2015.
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) calls on the Japanese government to do everything possible to obtain the release of Jumpei Yasuda, a Japanese freelance journalist who was kidnapped in Syria in July and who is still being held hostage by an armed group.
According to the information obtained yesterday by RSF, those holding Yasuda have started a countdown for the payment of a ransom, failing which they are threatening to execute him or sell him to another terrorist group.
Yasuda was kidnapped by an armed group in an area controlled by the Al-Nusra Front a few hours after crossing the border into Syria in early July. The stories he had wanted to cover included Islamic State’s execution of his friend and fellow Japanese journalist Kenji Goto in January.
RSF urges the Japanese government to act quickly. According to their obligations under international law – the Geneva Conventions and their additional protocols, UN Security Council Resolution 1738 on the safety of journalists (adopted in 2006) and a UN General Assembly resolution in 2013 – governments are responsible for the safety of journalists and must take active measures to protect and free them.
“We are very concerned about Jumpei Yasuda’s fate and we call on the Japanese government to do what is needed to save this journalist,” said Benjamin Ismaïl, the head of RSF’s Asia-Pacific desk. “We also urge all parties to this conflict to respect the media’s work and to stop taking journalists hostage for political or financial purposes.”
A total of 54 journalists are currently held hostage worldwide, 26 of them in Syria. The world’s most dangerous country for media personnel, Syria is ranked 177th out of 180 countries in the 2015 Reporters Without Borders press freedom index.
