Al Jazeera journalist Mohammed Fahmy stands behind bars at a court in Cairo
Al Jazeera journalist Mohammed Fahmy stands behind bars at a court in Cairo May 15, 2014. The trial of three Al Jazeera journalists, including Fahmy, accused of aiding of a "terrorist organisation" has been postponed to May 22 after the judge on Thursday authorised the defence to examine the evidence being held by the prosecution. The Qatar-based television network's journalists - Peter Greste, an Australian, Mohamed Fahmy, a Canadian-Egyptian national, and Baher Mohamed, an Egyptian - were detained in Cairo on December 29. All three have denied the charges, with Al Jazeera saying the accusations are absurd. REUTERS/Stringer (EGYPT - Tags: POLITICS MEDIA CIVIL UNREST)
