Bahrain Mirror: Bahrain's minor court set January 16, 2017 as a date to look into the case filed by ministry of information affairs against France 24 correspondent Nazeeha Saeed in which it accuses her of "practicing journalism without a license".

The information affairs authority said on Sunday (July 17, 2016) that it referred a journalist to the prosecution for impersonating a reporter for a foreign media outlet, claiming at the same time that "freedoms of press are guaranteed".

The authority went on to say that "no one is above the law".
