A JOURNALIST has been warned of a death threat "by criminal elements" by the PSNI.
The individual, who works in Northern Ireland and is being supported by their employer and the NUJ union, was advised by police there is "immediate risk of an attack".
The threat was reported to a meeting of the union's National Executive Council in London yesterday and a unanimous motion condemned it.
"Journalists have the right to work without threats being made against them or being physically harmed.
"...The NEC stands shoulder to shoulder with the member concerned and demands that those behind this threat lift it immediately and do so in a manner that is unequivocal and unconditional."
