Al-Jazeera has called for a "fast process" in the case of three of its journalists, jailed for over a year, after an Egyptian appeals court ordered a retrial.

Osama Saeed is the head of Public Relations at Al-Jazeera Network.

"Our call is to the Egyptian government, the Egyptian authorities to make that a fast process now.. This shouldn't take months and months and months to come to a conclusion. Everybody around the world can see that these guys should be released and they should have been released a long time ago."

Canadian-Egyptian Mohammed Fahmy, Australian journalist Peter Greste and Egyptian Baher Mohammed have not been released on bail.

Defence lawyers say they believe a retrial for the three men will be held within a month and they hope for speedy trial given a changing political climate between Egypt and Qatar - believed to be underpinning the whole case.

The three journalists have been held in custody for more than a year.

They were sentenced in June to 7 to 10 years in prison on charges including helping terrorists by acting as the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood's mouthpiece and falsifying news to destabilize Egypt.
