The three journalists were arrested in December.
An Egyptian Court on Monday morning sentenced three
AlJazeera journalists to jail.
The court found Peter Greste, Mohamed Fahmy, and Baher
Mohamed guilty of reporting false news and associating with the now outlawed
Muslim Brotherhood.
Aljazeera had denied the allegations and the world has
accused Egyptian authorities of simply clamping down on media freedom.
The twitter hashtag #FreeAJStaff has been used globally
to demand the release of the journalists who have been held since
December, 2013.
Details later…
