Al-Jazeera says Malaysia rejects visas for Aussie staffers

KUALA LUMPUR - Broadcaster Al Jazeera said on Thursday that Malaysian authorities have refused to renew the work visas of two of its Australian journalists, just days after the network's Kuala Lumpur office was raided by police.

Angered by the story, the authorities last month questioned Al Jazeera staff, with police seizing two computers from their office on Tuesday. The company did not provide any further details at this point and immigration officials could not be reached for comment.
