Sorainen is providing pro bono legal assistance to journalists Madara Sprude and Normunds Robeznieks from Tvnet Grupa, and Inga Springe from the Baltic Center for Investigative Journalism Re:Baltica in connection with the persecution and intimidation of journalists carried out by a private individual.
According to Sorainen, “to protect their rights, journalists have turned to law enforcement agencies, as well as asking senior state officials and the Ombudsman to pay attention to the low level of protection for journalists in the country.”
The Sorainen team included Partner Andris Taurins.
