The Paris-based journalists' rights group Reporters without borders (RSF) has called on the French foreign ministry to "put its foot down" over the jailing of two French journalists for visa-related offences in Pakistan. The foreign ministry had not yet reacted on Saturday to the news that the two reporters, from the French weekly L'Express, had been sentenced to six months in jail by a court in Islamabad.
"I think that the foreign ministry should put its foot down," the head of RSF, Robert Menard, told AFP in Paris. "We are worried and we think there must absolutely be a broader mobilization, because nothing guarantees that they will be freed in the coming days," he said.
