Dounia TV
Dounia TV (Radio Télévision Dounia) is a private press organisation based in the Nigerien capital of Niamey. It broadcasts news and entertainment programing in the Niamey area with repeaters in several provinces. One of the few private broadcasters in Niger, it is the only Nigerien produced television news source outside of the government operated Tele-Sahel. Dounia first broadcast on 26 February 2007 on 89 MHz (radio) and 527.25 MHz (television).〔http://www.apanews.net/apa.php/eco_images/apa.php?article22247〕 Its director and founder is Abibou Garba.
==Government actions==
The Government press regulation body, the High Council for Communication (CSC) closed Niamey based TV and radio stations of Dounia TV for one month in August 2008, and closed for an indefinite period Sahara FM, the main radio station in Agadez on 22 April 2008 for broadcasting interviews with people who had claimed they were the victims of abuses by government troops.〔(Radio and TV broadcaster Dounia suspended for one month without explanation ), 20 August 2008〕
Following an on air round table discussion of French President Nicolas Sarkozy's visit to Niger, Dounia TV's director Habibou Garba, Editor in Chief Seyni Amadou, and civil society activist, Elhadj Idi Abdou were arrested by the government of Niger, charged with "broadcasting false information".〔(Press freedom body slams Niger media 'harassment' ). AFP. 3 April 2009〕 The 31 March 2009 arrests came after a 30 March broadcast of "''Circle of Colleagues''" ("''le Cercle des confrères''"), a round table discussion show. During the show Abdou stated that Sarkozy's visit was "a technical stopover" to facilitate "the looting of Niger's resources". The charges carry a punishment of one to two years imprisonment and fines of from FCFA 100,000 to FCFA 1,000,000.〔(IFJ Calls on the Government of Niger to End the Arrests and Intimidation of Journalists ). IFJ. 7 April 2009.〕〔( Niger court grants bail to detained journalists ). PANA Press 6 April 2009.〕 Dounia Media also faced a separate court case: a defamation lawsuit by MNSD-Nassara members of the National Assembly of Niger, following comments in one of its programmes by an opposition member. Earlier in 2009, the CSC warned that Dounia TV could be closed for showing film of Nigerien Police forcefully dispersing supporters of jailed former Prime Minister of Niger Hama Amadou during a Niamey protest.〔(Niger: In Latest Judicial Harassment of Broadcasting Group, Director-General Charged With 'False News' ). Reporters sans Frontières (Paris). 3 April 2009〕 Dounia TV has been described as "giving considerable air-time" to supporters of Hama Amadou's faction in the ruling MNSD-Nassara.〔(Niger : Broadcaster Suspended, Violations Unspecified ). Committee to Protect Journalists. 28 August 2008.〕 Reporters Without Borders claimed in a statement following the March 31 arrests that "The Dounia group is the victim of repeated harassment by the judicial authorities".〔
