Belarus's journalist: three years' in prison for publishing the Mohammed Cartoons

Reporters Without Borders is outraged by the three-year prison sentence passed today by a court in Minsk on Alyaksandr Zdvizhkou, former deputy editor of the weekly Zhoda, for reprinting cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed that first appeared in a Danish newspaper. He was found guilty of “inciting racial hatred” under article 130 of the criminal code at the end of a trial behind closed doors.

The Belarus' dictatorship was on of the countries which voted for the UN's resolution against the defamation of religions.
