Journalists Association Calls on Djukanovic
PODGORICA, November 22, 2002 – The Association of Young Montenegrin Journalists today condemned the jailing of former Dan editor Vladislav Asanin for a month on a libel conviction. The Association called on the Parliament to be recalled to decriminalise libel in accordance with European trends. In its statement the Association noted that President Milo Djukanovic had publicly stated that he believed libel should be decriminalised. Now that he was moving to the post of prime minister, said the statement, Djukanovic would have the opportunity to do just that by proposing an amendment to the legislation.
