Khulna city journalists on Wednesday demanded immediate suspension of Mahabub Alam Farazi, resident medical officer of Khulna Medical College Hospital.
From a rally at the Picture Palace Crossing in the city, they alleged that a number of KMCH staff, ordered by the RMO, confined Amirul Islam, cameraman of private channel My TV, and Amir Sohel, cameraman of another private channel ETV, as they went to the hospital on Monday to take footage.
During the rally the photojournalists also put their cameras down on the ground as a sign of protest.
The hospital staff had held them for about an hour and broken Amir Shohel's camera before the police rescued them, they said, adding that the RMO did this to hide his deeds of corruption.
The programme was addressed, among others, by journalists Mallick Sudhangsu, Rakib Uddin Pannu, Asaduzzaman Khan Riaz and Rashidul Hasan with Shomoy TV Khulna correspondent Niamul Hasan Kochi in the chair.
