DireTube, an Ethiopian video sharing website quoting a local oppositional newspaper Sendek said that Mikiyas Nigatu of the Ethiopian Airports Enterprise’s Gambella Airport
Security personnel, who was charged by the federal prosecutor for
delivering sensitive information to the ESAT journalist named Fasil
Yenealem for 4,460 Br is sentenced to four years in prison by the
Federal High Court’s Fourth Criminal Bench on January 20, 2014.
Mikiyas who has failed to defend himself against a 10 page written
document from his e-mail and three pictures from his cell phone has been
giving various information to the ESAT television station which was
deemed by the Ethiopian government as “a media outlet for the terrorist
group Ginbot 7”
The charge indicates that Mikiyas has provided information about foreign
investors who were killed in the Gambella region and other very
sensitive security related materials.
