Three Swiss journalists tried in military court

Next Tuesday three Swiss journalists will appear at a military court on a charge of "violating defence secrecy" by publishing a leaked document that revealed the existence of secret prisons run by the CIA and the transport of CIA prisoners in Europe. Sandro Brotz, Beat Jost and Cristoph Grenacher, of the newspaper Sonntags-Blick, face five years in prison if they are convicted. The European Federation of Journalists has protested at journalists being tried by a military court. (Via IFEX)
