Tagum publisher shot, wounded in attack.
(From Philippine Daily Inquirer)
Byline: Juliet Labog-Javellana, Christian V. Esguerra and PDI Mindanao Bureau
A PUBLISHER of a weekly newspaper in Mindanao has been shot and seriously wounded in a renewed attack against media people, despite fresh government pledges to protect journalists from violence.
Police could not say if the shooting of Maximo Quindao, editor and publisher of the Tagum-based Mindanao Trucknews, had something to do with his being a journalist or was spurred by other motives.
Quindao, 46, suffered four bullet wounds in the right chest when he was shot by two motorcycle-riding men outside his Tagum office on Saturday.
An international fact-finding mission on Sunday released a report saying that a "widespread culture of violence" often condoned by government officials was to blame for the murders of journalists in the Philippines-said to be the second deadliest country for media people, after Iraq.
The findings by the mission organized by the Brussels-based International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and its local affiliate were disputed by Malaca[currency]ang yesterday.
