Geheime CIA-Gefängnisse: Schweizer Journalisten droht Strafe wegen unliebsamer Berichterstattung
Drei Journalisten der Schweizer Zeitung "SonntagsBlick" droht nach Angaben des Deutschen Journalisten-Verbandes wegen "Verletzung militärischer Geheimnisse" bis zu fünf Jahre Haft. Die SonntagsBlick-Autoren Sandro Brotz und Beat Jost hatten den Angaben zufolge Anfang 2006 in einem Artikel die Inhalte eines vom Schweizer Nachrichtendienst abgefangenen Faxes veröffentlicht. Aus dem Fax seien Indizien für die Existenz geheimer Gefängnisse des US-Geheimdienstes CIA in Osteuropa hervorgegangen. Anfang Februar habe das Schweizer Militärgericht Anklage gegen Brotz, Jost und den ehemaligen Chefredakteur des SonntagsBlicks Christoph Grenacher erhoben worden. Der Journalisten-Verband fordert das Gericht auf, die Anklage fallen zu lassen.
