Gabon paper banned over Le Monde story

Gabonese authorities have banned a fortnightly newspaper, Tendance Gabon, for three months for republishing a report about President Omar Bongo's private wealth in France. The original story appeared in the French daily Le Monde at the end of January. The paper's senior editor, Edwige Anyouzoa, was accused during a nine-hour interrogation of spreading "a campaign of denigration" against the president. (Via CPJ)
