(IPYS/IFEX) – On the evening of 29 August 2006, journalist Orlando Calderón Flores was assaulted by four men when he was on his way home. The event took place in the town of Sicuani, Cusco, in southeastern Peru. Calderón does not know why he was attacked, but he doesn’t rule out that it may be because of his work as a journalist.
Calderón hosts the programme “Tiempo Compartido” in Radio Venus, and has lately been critical of the administration of Ricardo Cornejo Sánchez, the town’s current mayor.
The journalist filed a complaint with the local police.
