Swedish papers campaign to free journalist

Sweden's four largest newspapers - Dagens Nyheter, Svenska Dagbladet, Aftonbladet and Expressen - have jointly launched a campaign to push for the release of Swedish journalist Dawit Isaak, who has been imprisoned in Eritrea for 2,742 days.

Isaak, who holds both Swedish and Eritrean citizenship, was arrested in September 2001 when the Eritrean government closed down the country's independent newspapers. He has never been charged with a crime. (Via The Local)
