Peter Greste’s fight is not over – Charges are filed against those running Mexico’s nightmare group home – America considers a new path to take with refugee children – And a lot more in your CareerSpot World News Briefs:

Peter Greste will appeal his seven-year prison sentence in Egypt for allegedly spreading false news and supporting the banned Muslim Brotherhood, charges Greste and his fellow al Jazeera journalists denied.  His brother Michael Greste said the family was in the final stages of appointing an Egyptian legal firm to act on Greste’s behalf.  Earlier this week, the judge who sentenced Greste highlighted the ridiculousness of the verdict, alleging that the journalists were “in league with the devil”.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott and US President Barack Obama agreed on the need for a “full, unimpeded and transparent” investigation into the downing of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine.  The two leaders will work to secure access to the crash site for investigators.  Investigators searching the vicinity around the crash site have discovered large pieces of the fuselage in a heavily wooded area, some of it caught in the trees.  Some 100 bodies of the 297 victims are unaccounted for.

The Obama Administration is considering a pilot program to grant refugee status to children from Honduras, as a way to stop the influx of thousands of unaccompanied kids from crossing over the southern border after making the extremely dangerous journey through Mexico.  The limited program would allow kids to apply for entry to the US from Honduras.  Mr. Obama will discuss the plan with his counterparts from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador on Friday.

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is condemning the arrest of his country’s Counsul to Aruba, who was arrested there on a warrant from the US, where prosecutors accuse Hugo Carvajal of drug trafficking and arming Marxist rebels in Colombia.  Maduro says that’s not allowed under International Law and the Vienna Convention granting diplomats immunity from arrest.  Aruba is a Caribbean island, and a territory of the Netherlands – the Dutch government is not commenting.

A Mexican judge is ordering six people to stand trial for the horrible abuses uncovered at a group home from which about 600 children and at-risk adults had to be rescued.  The group home’s owner – “Mama Rosa” Verduzco – was declared mentally unfit and will not face charges.  Former residents alleged physical, sexual, and psychological abuse.  When authorities raided the joint, they found it filthy, in disrepair, and infested with vermin.

Sunni extremists in Iraq are denying rumors they ordered all the women of the city of Mosul to undergo FGM – female genital mutilation.  “Islamic State”, formerly known as ISIS, dismisses the report as propaganda based on faked documents.  The UN's deputy humanitarian coordinator in Iraq Jacqueline Badcock insisted the reports are real and that up to 4 million women and girls aged 11-46 faced the risk of genital mutilation.

The South African government is fast-tracking a bill to deny land sales to foreigners.  Seven percent of South Africa’s land is already owned by foreigners, but would not be covered by the new law, which would restrict foreigners to leasing the land in 30-year increments.

The European Court of Human Rights censured Poland for allowing two terrorism suspects to be transferred to a secret American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) torture center in the country.  It’s the first case before the court that involved accusations that Europe was complicit in the CIA’s “extraordinary rendition” program, which was designed to circumvent the rule of law and deny human and legal rights to prisoners.  President Obama ended the program during his first week in office.

Myanmar is asking the aid agency Medicin Sans Frontieres (MSF), or Doctors Without Borders, to return to the country and resume its work in Rakhine state.  Locals and some officials accused MSF of being biased in favor of Rakhina’s extremely oppressed Rohingya Muslim minority, and at one point a mob attacked the aid workers.  The government is now promising to guarantee the group’s safety.
