HEAD OF UNESCO CONDEMNS THIRD MURDER OF FILIPINO JOURNALIST IN RECENT
DAYSNew York, Aug 6 2013 2:00PMThe head of the United Nations agency
tasked with defending press freedom today denounced the killing of
Mario Sy, the third Filipino journalist gunned down in recent days,
and urged a thorough investigation into the killing.

"I condemn the murder of Mario Sy,"
<"http://www.unesco.org/new/en/communication-and-information/resources/news-and-in-focus-articles/all-news/news/director_general_voices_alarm_at_murder_of_mario_sy_third_journalist_killed_in_the_philippines_in_two_days/">said
the Director-General of the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization (UNESCO), Irina Bokova.

Mr. Sy, a freelance photo contributor to <i>Sapol News Bulletin</i>
newspaper, was shot on 1 August by an unidentified man who entered his
house in the province of South Cotabato.

The killing comes two days after the double murder of Bonifacio Loreto
and Richard Kho, columnists for a weekly tabloid newspaper, <i>Aksyon
Ngayon</i>.

"It is very alarming to see three journalists killed in the space of
two days and I urge the authorities to do all in their power to bring
the culprits of these crimes to justice," Ms. Bokova said.

According to media and police reports, on 30 July, Mr. Loreto and Mr.
Kho were shot several times by two assailants on motorcycles as they
talked in front of a convenience store in the Quezon City
neighbourhood of the capital, Manila.

The journalists are remembered on the dedicated UNESCO webpage,
'UNESCO Condemns Killing of Journalists.'Aug 6 2013 2:00PM
