Yekaterinburg (Russia) (AFP) - US reporter Evan Gershkovich's closed-door espionage trial in Russia began Wednesday, 15 months after he was arrested on charges that he, his newspaper and the White House reject as false and baseless. Hours after the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reporter was brought into court in the Urals city of Yekaterinburg, Washington said it was doing everything it could to secure his release. A senior Russian diplomat urged the United States to "seriously consider the signals" Moscow had sent its way over a possible swap deal. Gershkovich, 32, became the first Western journ...

By Johannes LEDEL Stockholm (AFP) - Un tribunal de Stockholm a acquitté jeudi un ancien général syrien accusé de crimes de guerre dans son pays en 2012, jugeant insuffisantes les preuves de son implication. Mohammed Hamo, âgé de 65 ans et vivant en Suède, a été jugé au printemps pour "complicité" de crimes de guerre entre janvier et juillet 2012. L'armée syrienne a bien commis des "attaques aveugles, contraires au droit international" dans un quartier de Homs (centre) et dans la ville d'Al Rastan en 2012 mais "aucune preuve" n'a été présentée pour démontrer que la 11e division de l'ancien géné...

Florence (Italy) (AFP) - An Italian court on Wednesday reconvicted Amanda Knox of slander for accusing an innocent man of killing her British roommate in 2007, a murder she herself was jailed for before being acquitted. The American wiped away tears in court in Florence after she was sentenced to three years already served for having accused, during police questioning, a Congolese bar owner of murdering 21-year-old Meredith Kercher.

Rome (AFP) - Amanda Knox said on Monday she would be back in court in Italy this week for a slander case linked to her conviction and later acquittal for the 2007 murder of her British roommate. Knox, from Seattle, was 20 when she was arrested alongside her Italian then-boyfriend and a Congolese bar owner over the brutal killing of 21-year-old exchange student Meredith Kercher in their shared apartment in Perugia. Knox, now 36, spent four years in an Italian prison for the murder before being freed on appeal, convicted again and then finally exonerated in 2015. In 2011, she was sentenced to th...
