Valon Syla shows why he didn't physically defend against the attack yesterday

He thinks the attack was organized and that he tried to avoid violence.

The exiles usually want to stop me from walking, drinking coffee. But it wasn't. I tried everything I could to avoid violence and retire. Sulm seemed to be organized, so I avoided them, he said in a television debate.

He tells why he did not return and defend himself.

I don't see the journalist's work getting caught by people on the street. The only thing we need to do is to avoid violence. If I return the attack, then I become part of the violence ) ) P E RISCOP/
