AFP, CAIRO: An Egyptian court yesterday postponed for a second time its verdict in the retrial of three Al-Jazeera journalists, rescheduling it for August 29. The court had already put off its much anticipated verdict last Thursday because the judge was reportedly ill. Another judge at Sunday’s hearing said the verdict was being delayed again because other defendants in the trial could not be brought to the court room from their cells. Australian Peter Greste, Canadian Mohamed Fahmy and Egyptian Baher Mohamed were jailed last year for “spreading false news” that supported the blacklisted Muslim Brotherhood during their coverage of the turmoil after the army ousted Islamist president Mohamed Morsi in 2013. Fahmy, Baher and several other defendants in the trial were released on bail at the start of the retrial early this year, but at least one codefendant has been jailed in a separate case.
