Arson attack on Kazakh newspaper's presses

The print plant of an independent weekly newspaper in Kazakhstan has been badly damaged in an arson attack. Men set fire to the press building of Lada in Aktau, western Kazakhstan, a paper known for its sceptical reporting of the Kazakh government. Gennady Skraglenko, the paper's director and founder, believes the attack is an act of retaliation for a recent series of critical articles. (Via IFEX)
