Azerbaijan media lose valued journalist

Elmar HUSEYNOV, editor-in-chief of the weekly Azerbaijani news magazine, Monitor, has apparently been murdered in Baku. 2005 is getting off to a very rocky start with journalists being apprehended by government and non-government people around the world, and, very sadly, journalists losing their lives. The attached link goes to the reaction of the Baku office of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.

Media leaders attending the Monaco Media Forum (30 June - 2 July) will discuss these challenges and seek constructive responses.
