More editors have paid the price for publishing the controversial cartoons of Mohammed. In Malaysia, the editor of English language daily the Sarawak Tribune has resigned after the country’s Malaysia’s security minister, Noh Omar, asked for a detailed explanation for why the cartoons were published. If he’s not satisfied with the answer, the paper could lose its licence to publish.
Meanwhile in Yemen, the licence of al-Hurriya was anulled and its editor arrested, according to The Australian.
