News24 demands apology after March and March leader exposed journalist’s cellphone number

# News24 has served March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma with a letter of demand after she posted investigative journalist Khaya Koko’s cellphone number on Facebook. The news platform says Koko has since received more than a hundred threatening calls and messages, including a death threat. The media organisation is demanding Ngobese-Zuma remove the post, apologise to Koko and undertake not to publish his personal information again. It says the threats may be criminal and violate Koko’s rights to privacy, dignity and safety.
