Russian Envoy: Journalists ?will be Released Today?

Russian Ambassador to Georgia Vladimir Chkhikvishvili told reporters on September 8 that the Georgian journalists detained in North Ossetia?s city of Beslan would apparently be released today.
 
?I think they [Nana Lezhava and Levan Tetvadze] will be released today,? Vladimir Chkhikvishvili said.
 
Journalist of Tbilisi-based Rustavi 2 television Nana Lezhava and cameraman Levan Tetvadze were arrested by the North Ossetian police, while covering developments in the terror-stricken town of Beslan. Both were accused of illegal crossing the state border.
 
The court in Russia?s North Ossetian capital Vladikavkaz has already sentenced the Georgian journalists to pre-trial detention.
