Mr Miranda is thepartner of Glenn Greenwald, the journalist who published documents on a US surveillanceprogramme he obtained from the fugitive intelligence agency contractor Edward Snowden.Earlier Mr Patriota denounced the incident.

“We consider this nine-hour detention based on a law that applies to terror suspectsunjustifiable. We hope it won’t happen again and I shall speak today to the British ForeignMinister William Hague to send him this message.”

The United States authorities said they knew that Mr Miranda’s questioning was likely tohappen, but had not requested it. As David Willis reports:

The White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the decision to detain David Miranda was onethe British authorities had taken on their own. He denied suggestions that the detention hadbeen requested by the United States, although he said the US had been, as he put it, kept inthe loop about the move. The US has repeatedly called for Edward Snowden to be extradited tothe United States to face charges of espionage.

State prosecutors in Egypt have brought new charges against the deposed Islamist PresidentMohamed Morsi, saying that he’s to be investigated on allegations of inciting violence. Thecharges relate to the deaths of several people during protests against Mr Morsi outside thepresidential palace last December.

The announcement came hours after 24 policeofficers were killed in an attack by suspected Islamist militants in the Sinai Peninsula, furtherdeepening the political crisis in Egypt. Masha MacAlea reports.

They were riding in two different buses in the Rafah area in northern Sinai when they werestopped, pulled out of the buses and gunned down, according to security reports. This justgoes to show how vulnerable Sinai is and really what a hotbed it has become for these regularattacks on security forces, again another security challenge, another security front for thearmy to have to deal with.

The Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has called for a dialogue with extremists to end theviolence that has left thousands of people dead.
