Reporters Without Borders (RSF) calls on Benin’s supreme court to quash Bénin Web TV journalist Ignace Sossou’s May 2020 conviction on a charge of “harassment by means of electronic communications” when it examines the case today. RSF also urges Benin’s authorities to overhaul the country’s Digital Law, which poses a threat to its journalists.
Originally given an 18-month sentence in December 2019, Sossou spent six months in prison on this charge.
