Reporter Rasmus Tantholdt was speaking live to a news anchor in Denmark when three men drove up behind him on an electric cart and tried to block the camera lens.
“You invited the whole world to come here. Why can’t we film? It’s a public place,” Tantholdt was heard saying in English.The incident five days before the start of the World Cup revisited a subject that has been sensitive for tournament organisers who have denied claims there are strict limits on where media can film in Qatar.
Denmark’s soccer federation has also been one of the biggest critics of Qatar among the 32 World Cup teams over the emirate’s record on human rights, including its treatment of low-paid migrant workers.Danish players will wear game jerseys that have a toned-down badge and manufacturers’ logo as a protest in support of labour rights when they play France, Australia and Tunisia in group D.
