South Africa editor faces arrest

The editor of the South African Sunday Times and one of his senior executives are expecting to be arrested this week. Editor Mondli Makhanya and deputy managing editor Jocelyn Maker face charges of theft and contravention of the national health act that prohibits obtaining access to a person's medical records. The accusations follow the paper's exposé of the minister of health's behaviour while she was a patient in a Cape Town hospital. (Via Sunday Times)
