In tonight's edition: The man accused of setting Ugandan Olympic athlete Rebecca Cheptegei on fire and snuffing her promising life out has died. Also, a group of women with Congolese mothers and Belgian fathers take on the Belgian state: they've appealed an earlier ruling against their case, which accused the Belgian colonial power of persecution by having forcibly removed thousands of mixed-race children from their parents. Plus, Tunisian media are feeling pressure from the authorities in the run-up to the October presidential elections, as journalists say they've lost their accreditation and faced intimidation.
