The Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE) denounced on Saturday the suspension of the Inti Pacha Radio signal in what it described as a direct attack on freedom of expression and indigenous communication. The community media outlet was sanctioned by the Telecommunications Regulation and Control Agency with a 15-day suspension of its broadcasts in the context of the protests against the government of Daniel Noboa. The indigenous movement condemned the measure as a punishment for popular and community communication and vowed to continue speaking out. The organization noted that this is part of a pattern, citing the suspensions of Radio Ilúmin and TV Micc, as well as signal blocking and harassment of community communicators.
