Egypt sentences 3 Al-Jazeera reporters to 3 years in prison
Greste, earlier deported in February, spoke to Al-Jazeera from Sydney and said he believed an Egyptian appeals court would overturn the verdict. Fahmy and Mohammed, both on hand for Saturday’s hearing, were immediately taken away by police after the hearing.
“We broke no laws, we did nothing unethical or illegal or immoral. And so it’s just incomprehensible to see how the court can come to this conclusion,” Greste said, adding that the verdict was “clearly political.”
