Into the Line of Fire

BBC Radio 4 - From Our Own Correspondent, Into the Line of Fire

Reports from journalists, with stories from Ukraine, Pakistan, India, Egypt and Mali.

Reports from writers and journalists around the world, with stories from Ukraine, Pakistan, India, Egypt and Mali.

Around the world in 28-minutes. Residents of eastern Ukraine fear the war raging around them is set to intensify. A life in hiding -- how the husband of a Pakistani woman accused of committing blasphemy fears for his life and wants the international community to intervene. We visit the heart of the Tata empire in India and, in the wake of the release from an Egyptian prison of the former BBC-correspondent Peter Greste, examine allegations that the justice system there is unfair, unjust and heavy-handed. And in the Malian capital Bamako, some are concerned about what's going to happen to some thousand-year-old manuscripts. Others, however, seem more concerned about the football.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
