Assignment: Pakistan - journalists under fire
Journalists in Pakistan say they\u2019re under threat of abduction and even of being killed if they criticise the state authorities. Whoever is in power, legal action against journalists who\u2019ve spoken out against the authorities is nothing new. Press freedom campaigners say that in 12 months 140 journalists were threatened or attacked with some saying that democracy itself is under attack. For Assignment Mobeen Azhar hears the allegations made by those who say they\u2019ve been targeted to shut them up - allegations which the authorities deny.
