Staff at an Afghan television station in the capital, Kabul, have protested against a raid by armed police who allegedly assaulted workers there.
Dozens of journalists and Members of Parliament demonstrated outside parliament against the raid.
They accused President Hamid Karzai of smothering freedom of speech during Tuesday's raid at Tolo TV.
MP and former journalist Shukria Barakzai accused the authorities of having no respect for the law.
"It's a small example for journalists in Afghanistan. We face lots of violence," he told the rally outside parliament.
