Bahrain Journalists Association (BJA) strongly condemned the verbal and physical attack on doctors by journalist Reem Khalifa, according to a BNA website.
This attack is in breach of the precepts of journalism, it stressed in a statement today adding that a letter of complaint by President of Bahrain Medical Society (BMS) Dr. Nabil Al Ansari, in which he claimed that he was verbally assaulted by Rim Khalifa during a press conference held by the Irish delegation at Ramada Palace Hotel, was considered seriously.
The journalist has also attacked verbally and physically Dr. Hind Fayez and Dr. Hanen Harith.
This immoral behaviour can never be accepted under any pretext and does contravene ethical and democratic journalism which respects all opinions, BJA asserted.
