Two French journalists arrested in Niger face a possible death sentence when they go on trial next week. Reporter Thomas Dandois and cameraman Pierre Creisson were arrested on December 17 while working for the Franco-German TV channel, Arte. They are accused of visiting Tuareg rebels without permission. The French newspaper, Libération, complained yesterday that the French government's response to their arrest has been muted. (Via Reporters without Borders/The Independent)
