Aljazeera, BBC, CNN and journalists all over the world mount pressure on Egypt to free Aljazeera journalists sentenced to 7 to 10 years for "doing their job"

Journalists the world over have rejected the guilty verdict and sentencing of three Al Jazeera journalists who were handed down sentences seven years and 10 years by an Egyptian court on charges including aiding the Muslim Brotherhood and reporting false news. The guilty verdicts were announced by a judge on Monday against Peter Greste, Mohamed Fahmy, and Baher Mohamed.
Greste and Fahmy were sentenced to seven years in prison, while Baher Mohamed was sentenced to an additional three years for possession of ammunition. Mohamed was in possession of a spent bullet casing he had found on the ground during a protest.

Other Al Jazeera journalists who were tried in absentia, including Sue Turton and Dominic Kane, were sentenced to 10 years.

These sentences have led to protests all over the world by journalists and indeed people from all works of life. See few pictures below.
