Mali newspaper editor charged with incitement to revolt
A Malian newspaper editor who published an open letter criticising the leader of last year's military coup has been charged with incitement to revolt, the head of Mali's written press association said.
Journalists in Sierra Leone have vowed to press for reforms of the country's libel laws, which they say criminalise their profession and have resulted in 10 journalists being jailed over the last five years, notes a report on the News24 site.
