Bulgarian Journalist Christo Grozev banned from Bafta Film Awards ceremony in London over security risks
A Bulgarian journalist claims he has been "banned" from attending Sunday's Bafta Film Awards ceremony in London because he is a "security risk".
"Moments like this show the growing dangers to independent journalists around the world," Mr Grozev tweeted.However not everyone associated with the film, Navalny, have been excluded from the ceremony. Bafta confirmed to PA news agency that several producers will be there. On Twitter, Mr Grozev wrote that he had been "banned by British police" from attending the awards ceremony - although the Metropolitan Police said they had no power to do this, and it would be up to the event organisers. It does, however, give advice to event organisers on security matters.
The ban was down to "concerns about public safety and security," he was told, but was given no more information on what those risks were.
