An Egyptian court has sentenced a television presenter and social media influencer to death, along with roughly a dozen other defendants, on charges related to drug trafficking, France 24 reported in its evening broadcast.

The report did not provide further details on the identity of the presenter, the specific charges, or the nature of the evidence presented during the trial. France 24 characterized the case as part of its broader nightly roundup of news from across Africa and the Middle East.

The same broadcast segment also covered other developments on the continent. According to France 24, a South African high court rejected an attempt by a former defence minister to have a corruption case against her dismissed. The report did not specify the identity of the former minister or the nature of the corruption allegations.

Separately, France 24 reported that the first Pan-African Architecture Biennale opened on Monday in Nairobi, Kenya, marking what the broadcaster described as a new event dedicated to architecture on the African continent.

France 24 did not provide additional context, official statements, or reactions from the parties involved in any of the three reports. Further details on the drug trafficking case, including the presenter's identity and the legal proceedings, were not immediately available.
