| 2 | CAIRO An Egyptian court on Sunday postponed delivering its verdict in the retrial of three Al Jazeera TV journalists, a decision a defense lawyer said was to avoid bad publicity during a visit by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and other dignitaries. |
| 3 | It was the second time the verdict in the internationally sensitive case has been postponed, this time to Aug. 29. |
| 4 | The three men were originally sentenced to between seven and 10 years in prison on charges including spreading lies to help a terrorist organization, a reference to the banned Muslim Brotherhood. |
| 5 | The journalists deny the charges and Egypt's high court ordered a retrial in January. |
| 6 | Mohamed Fahmy, a naturalized Canadian who has given up his Egyptian citizenship, and Egyptian Baher Mohamed were released on bail in February after more than a year in custody. |
| 7 | Australian Peter Greste, was deported in February. |
| 8 | Amal Clooney, one of Fahmy's lawyers, said the adjournment appeared aimed to avoid clashing with Kerry's visit to Cairo on Sunday as well as a lavish inauguration planned on Thursday for a second Suez Canal. |
| 9 | "The verdict may be coming later; but the world will still be watching," Clooney said in a statement. |
| 10 | Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shukri said during a news conference with Kerry that no journalists in Egypt were in jail over their reporting. |
