Unesco palkitsi tiistaina 3.5. azerbaidžanilaisen tutkivan journalistin Khadiya Ismayilovan Guillermo Cano -sananvapauspalkinnolla. Palkintoseremonia pidettiin Finlandia-talossa osana maailman lehdistönvapauden päivän konferenssia.

Ismayilova on freelance-toimittaja, joka tunnetaan erityisesti Azerbaidžanin hallituksen kritisoimisesta. Radioasema Radio Free Europessa hän paljasti useita todisteita maan presidentin Ilham Aliyevin ja tämän lähipiirin korruptiosta.

Azerbaidžanilainen Khadija Ismayilova ei pystynyt vastaanottamaan palkintoa henkilökohtaisesti, koska hän kärsii kotimaassaan vankeustuomiota. Hänen puolestaan palkinnon vastaanotti hänen äitinsä.

Guillermo Cano -palkinto jaettiin ensimmäisen kerran vuonna 1997. Viime vuonna sen sai syyrialainen ihmisoikeusaktivisti Mazen Darwish.

Palkinto on nimetty kolumbialaisen toimittajan Guillermo Cano Isazan mukaan. Cano murhattiin vuonna 1986 hänen aloitettuaan El Spectador -lehdessä kampanjan, joka tähtäsi huumekartellien vaikutusvallan vähentämiseen maan politiikassa.

Helsingin Sanomain Säätiö rahoittaa palkintoa yhdessä Kolumbialaisen Cano Foundationin kanssa.
