Baher Mohamed and Mohamed Fahmy

Mohamed Fahmy: Fahmy was working for Qatar-based satellite news broadcaster Al-Jazeera English when he was arrested on Dec. 29 along with his colleagues Australian Peter Greste and Egyptian Baher Mohamed, according to The Star. Fahmy's family said as the days drag on, the 40-year-old is frustrated at how slowly the trial is progressing and how his requests for bail keep being turned down and As Mohamed Fahmy marked 100 days in a Cairo prison on Monday, the family of the Egyptian-Canadian journalist said the man is "fed up" with being held on what they call a ridiculous set of charges. The trio are being tried along with 17 others in what's thought to be the first time journalists have been charged with terrorism-related offences in Egypt. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
