Rep. Bass: “Iwacu is one of the last independent newspapers in Burundi and it is critical that the government of Burundi have a free press. An attack on journalists is an attack on human rights. I call for the immediate release of journalists Agnes Ndirubusa, Christine Kamikazi, Egide Harerimana, Terence Mpozenzi and their driver Adolphe Masabarakiza.”
