Mariane Pearl<\/a>, a journalist and widow of Daniel Pearl, a Wall Street Journal reporter who was beheaded by Pakistani militants in 2002, told the 15-nation council that it was “a troubled time for our profession.”<\/p>\n“In 2014, impunity in journalism murder cases reached a staggering 96 per cent and the remaining 4 per cent obtained only partial justice,” she said.”
\u201cWe have become targets. Insurgent groups no longer use reporters to transmit news, but instead kidnap them to make news. They treat us as enemy combatants and spies. This is our everyday reality.”<\/p>\n
Press freedom watchdog Reporters without Borders says 66 reporters were killed in 2014, 25 since the start of this year, and more than 700 over the past decade.

Deputy UN Secretary-General Jan Eliasson reminded council members that
In addition to Syria and Iraq, speakers cited the treatment of journalists in Iran which has been described as being amongst the worst offenders in holding journalists jailed.<\/p>\n
