"A photojournalist for the newspaper Correo del Sur in the city of Sucre, Carlos Alberto Rodríguez, was beaten and his mobile phone was taken from him while he was recording the destruction of electoral material at the state university. The National Press Association (ANP, for its initials in Spanish) issued a statement of condemnation against the aggression carried out by violent groups. ANP, which represents the main print media in Bolivia, asked the Prosecutor's Office to initiate investigations to identify those who attacked the photojournalist and demanded that authorities of the state-owned San Francisco Xavier University (USFX ) take measures against people who exercise violence within academic units According to ANP data, this is the second attack against journalists from the newspaper Correo del Sur committed by violent groups (or "grupos de choque" in Spanish) that operate within the state university with absolute impunity."
