Philippines journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of 'cyber libel,' in a case she and press freedom groups have described as a politically motivated prosecution by the Duterte government
Embattled Philippines journalist Maria Ressa was found guilty of"cyber libel" Monday, in a case she and press freedom groups have described as a politically motivated prosecution by the Duterte government.
Ressa was arrested early last year in the Manila offices of Rappler, the online news outlet she founded in 2012 and which has gained prominence for its unflinching coverage of President Rodrigo Duterte and his brutal war on drugs. The case hinged on a story written in 2012, which alleged that businessman Wilfredo Keng had links to illegal drugs and human trafficking. However, the article was published by Rappler two years before the new cyber libel laws came into effect in the Philippines.
