They aren’t lying, though:
IRISH JOURNALIST and RT correspondent Chay Bowes has reportedly been arrested in Romania.
RT, formerly Russia Today, is reporting that Bowes had travelled to Romania ahead of its presidential election on Sunday.
The upcoming election is a rerun after November elections were cancelled amid allegations of Russian interference in favour of far-right candidate Calin Georgescu, who is barred from the new vote.
RT has reported that Bowes was “detained” in Bucharest after landing there to cover the election.
Speaking on RT, Afshin Rattansi said he understands that Bowes is “being released on his way to Istanbul”.
