CNN has wins the Amnesty International Media award for the documentary, 'World’s Untold Stories: Locked up and Forgotten.' CNN International has won the Amnesty International Media award in the ‘International Television and Radio’ category for our documentary, 'World’s Untold Stories: Locked up and Forgotten.' CNN's David McKenzie highlights the negligence and social taboos suffered by Kenya’s mentally disabled community, who live a life hidden away in slums and remote villages across the country. Kudos to David, photographer Fabien Muhire and producer Ingrid Formanek - who told us this was the most disturbing story she's worked on in 25 years at CNN.
