Ján Kuciak’s name in Washington

The names of 22 journalists killed in 2018 including Slovak Ján Kuciak were added to the Journalist Memorial at the Newseum in Washington on Monday, 3rd June. At the ceremony, media rights defenders warned against growing threats to the freedom of press all around the world. The Slovak investigative journalist was killed along with his fiancée Martina Kušnírová in their house because of Ján Kuciak's work. Their murder resulted in massive protests followed by the resignation of the then-Slovak Prime Minister, Interior Minister and the Police Corps President, among others.
