Allan McDonald Tells His Side Of The Story Regarding Detainment

imageWorldFocus.org has a short interview with the cartoonist Allan McDonald, who has been critical of the recent attempts to seize power. McDonald was held overnight by authorities on charges of breaking curfew laws (I hadn't know that, or had missed it) and as a result lost his cartoons and supporting material while he and his daughter were briefly detained. It's a very compelling narrative and has that quality where the incidental details makes it more terrifying. It may be worth noting that one commentator questions the television censorship and loss of power details, which could be important and I hope by now that's been responded to by the authors.
