The Honda’s driver was talking to a police officer when he saw the journalist making photos. Together with his friend, the man demanded to delete all photos and threatened to smash the journalist’s camera.  The police officer said that nothing worth mentioning happened and that all information would be available at the police press center and so he refused to comment. He did not react to the threats to the journalist.
