Argentine journalists beaten and stripped

An Argentine TV reporter and cameraman were beaten, ordered to strip and threatened with death while covering a human trafficking story.

Julián Chabert and Raúl Zalazar, of Channel 7 of Mendoza, were investigating reports that Bolivian immigrants were being exploited on an olive plantation.

While interviewing one of the immigrants, they were confronted by the land-owner, who was armed with a gun.

After they were beaten and threatened, Chabert managed to call the police on his cell phone and the farmer was arrested.
