PULA, April 4 (Hina) - Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, MP Furio Radin condemned a ban imposed by Croatian Television (HTV) on an edition of the broadcast "Nedjeljom u dva", which was to have hosted the president of the
Association of Homosexuals "Iskorak", Dorino Manzin. The decision to ban the show by editor-in-chief Jasna Ulaga-Valic was described by Radin as "an uncivilised act". Radin announced that in his capacity as the president of the Parliamentary Committee on Human Rights and Rights of National Minorities he would initiate talks with Ulaga-Valic and Dorino Manzin within a wider debate on the right to sexual preference. We need to determine the truth about whether or not the HTV editor-in-chief in fact attempted to "restrict problems homosexuals encounter to the science programme". If that is true, then this is not only a matter of a serious violation of human rights but of censorship of
