The chief editor of the newly launched Awramba newspaper, Ato Dawit Kebede, was taken to the 6th police station by Woyanne gunmen in Addis Ababa this morning.

Ato Dawit was recently released from jail along with the Kinijit leaders. Ato Dawit’s associates told ER sources that he was taken away without an arrest warrant or any explanation.

Other journalists and editors continue to receive threates from the Woyanne regime as political repression and crackdown on the free press in Ethiopia continue.
