VOA Deewa threatened
A VOA Deewa reporter in the Waziristan region of Pakistan has been threatened by a Taliban group in that area. On the morning of March 14, he received a phone call from someone who identified himself as Azam Tariq, a member of Pakistani Taliban. The caller accused the VOA reporter of working for “spy agencies” and warned him to stop reporting on the region or he should prepare to be tried by a Taliban court that would punish him for his reporting.
