Freed
Lubna Hussein, a former journalist and U.N. press officer, addresses a news conference after her release in Sudan's capital Khartoum, September 8, 2009. Hussein, who was jailed for wearing trousers deemed indecent, was freed on Tuesday after the country's journalists' union said it had paid a $200 fine on her behalf. She was convicted of indecency charges on Monday in a case that has attracted a worldwide outcry.
