GUJRANWALA, March 14: Authorities cancelled on Wednesday all passes issued to local journalists for the coverage of President General Pervez Musharraf’s visit. The Information Department collected pictures, national identity cards and other documents from the local journalists one month ago and sent them to the Presidency for security clearance. A few days ago, the department issued passes to reporters but on Wednesday reporters were told that all passes had been cancelled and no one was allowed to enter the venue of a public meeting to be addressed by the president today (Thursday).
