The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) has expressed concern at the lack of progress in the investigation into the murder of Sunday Worldreporter Martin O'Hagan.
Mr O'Hagan was murdered outside his home in Lurgan, Co Armagh on Septmeber 28th, 2001.
The loyalist Red Hand Defenders, a cover name used in the past by the UDA and the LVF, claimed responsibility for the murder.
In a statement marking the anniversary of the murder, NUJ General Secretary Mr Jeremy Dear said the union was "deeply disappointed" that those responsible for the killing have not been apprehended.
Mr Dear said: "It is important that the necessary resources should be made available so that the Chief Constable can accelerate this investigation and the investigation into the death of other workers."
NUJ Irish Secretary Mr Séamus Dooley said: "the past year had been marked by Loyalist threats against journalists, including Mr O'Hagan's colleagues at the Sunday Worldand by the intimidation of journalists at the Andersonstown News Group.
"Journalists will not be intimidated by threats, from whatever quarter and NUJ members will not be prevented from doing their work by those who resort to violence," he said.
