Tuomo Pietilaina, Laura Halmi and Kalle Silfverberg are accused of publishing classified documents in a newspaper.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Finland has put three journalists on trial on charges of revealing national defence secrets for allegedly publishing classified documents in a newspaper article.<\/p>\n

The December 16, 2017, article in daily newspaper Helsingin Sanomat focused on the activities of the Finnish Intelligence Research Center, a military intelligence agency.<\/p>\n

The investigative report revealed the rough location and tasks of an intelligence unit of the defence forces.<\/p>\n

Reporters Tuomo Pietilaina and Laura Halmi, and the paper\u2019s acting manager at the time, Kalle Silfverberg, have denied wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

If convicted, they face prison sentences of up four years, according to Finnish broadcaster MTV.<\/p>\n

The three were not present at the District Court of Helsinki on Thursday but are scheduled to testify at the end of November, MTV reported.<\/p>\n

A planned follow-up article was not published on the order of the editor-in-chief after the first story drew criticism, according to MTV.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, a prosecutor demanded the removal of the online version of the original story from the newspaper\u2019s website, MTV said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
