A statement by its spokesperson read, “our reporting was carefully and meticulously researched, and we stand by it. Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed had in a press conference earlier on Thursday called for sanctions to be placed on CNN for the report, maintaining that the military fired blank bullets at the Toll Gate and not even at protesters but into the air.
