Journalists are obliged to protect their sources of information and can only be made to reveal them at the request of the Attorney General. This provision poses a danger to the protection of the confidentiality of sources. However, journalists can decline to comply if the Attorney General is a party to the proceedings. In this case, they can file an appeal against the Attorney General’s request or the decision.
