A COURT in Algeria handed £800 fines and six-month suspended jail terms to two Christians yesterday for trying to convert Muslims, a defence lawyer said, in the latest in a series of trials stirring accusations of religious repression.
Rachid Seghir and Djallal Dahmani were punished for "distributing documents to disrupt the Muslim faith".

I take it you are referring to the Algerian judge when you reported that the missionaries were fined by Turkey.

Looks like the Hootsmon stuffed it up again. Why would an Algerian court fine them for doing something in Turkey. Are the subbies out on the booze again?
