Danish prosecutors launched a case against Roj TV on account of encouraging the activities of the PKK (Kurdistan Workers' Party).
The Danish Chief Prosecutor Joergen Steen Soerensen reported that a case against the Kurdish satellite television Roj TV was launched on account of encouraging the activities of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).
While Roj TV does not have any studios in Denmark it was granted broadcasting license by the Danish authorities.
Since the foundation of Roj TV on 1 March 2004 it faces pressure by the Turkish government. The Turkish state has also pressurised the Danish authorities in order to cancel the license given to Roj TV.
The pressure that Roj TV faces has increased since last year. Turkey has also sent Danish judiciary 26 files against Roj TV.
