CNN – Η Αλ Κάιντα του Μαγκρέμπ εξέδωσε προειδοποίηση προς τη Γαλλία μετά τις τελευταίες αιματηρές επιθέσεις. Σε σάιτ τζιχαντιστών υπάρχει η εξής ανάρτηση : “Η Γαλλία πληρώνει το τίμημα της βίας του κράτους εναντίον των μουσουλμανικών κρατών και την παραβίαση της ιερότητας τους. Για όσο χρόνο οι στρατιώτες της βρίσκονται υπό τη μορφή δυνάμεων κατοχής στο Μάλι και την Κεντρική Αφρική και βομβαρδίζουν δικούς μας ανθρώπους στο Ιράκ και τη Συρία και όσο διάστημα τα μίντια της συνεχίζουν να υποτιμούν τον προφήτη Μωάμεθ, η Γαλλία θα είναι εκτεθειμένη στο χειρότερο και ακόμη πιο πέρα”
MOSCOW (AP) — The international news channel CNN says it will halt broadcasting in Russia due to recent changes in media legislation.
Turner International, which operates CNN, announced the move in a statement Tuesday. It didn’t elaborate on the background to the decision, but appeared to refer to a law passed in October that limits foreign media ownership in Russia to 20 percent.
The chairman of the Kremlin’s human rights council, Mikhail Fedotov, was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying the decision would “seriously impoverish” Russia’s information sphere.
Concerns are strong about media freedom in Russia as the government has taken control of all major domestic television stations and the independent-minded Echo of Moscow radio station has come under pressure.
Phil Rudd, the drummer for legendary hard rock band AC/DC, has been charged with attempting to have two men killed.
The 60-year-old appeared in a New Zealand court Thursday afternoon facing a count of attempting to procure the murder of two men, said Bay of Plenty district’s police spokesperson, Kim Perks.
He was also charged with threatening to kill, possession of methamphetamine and possession of cannabis, Perks said.
The names of the men he allegedly wanted killed and the name of the alleged potential hitman are suppressed, CNN affiliate TVNZ reported.
Rudd entered no plea to the charges at the Tauranga District Court, and was bailed until November 27, local media reported.
Police searched Rudd’s waterfront home in Tauranga on Thursday morning, TVNZ reported.
The Australian-born drummer moved to New Zealand in 1983, after being sacked by the group. He rejoined the group years later.
AC/DC are one of the world’s biggest-selling musical acts, and in 2003 were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Their latest album, Rock or Bust, is scheduled for release later this month.
