LONDON -- Two men accused of leaking details of a memo that reportedly included references to President Bush discussing bombing Arab broadcaster Al-Jazeera will face trial in April, a judge said Monday. White House officials have denied the report, calling the claims "outlandish and inconceivable."
David Keogh, 49, a former Cabinet Office spokesman, and former parliamentary researcher Leo O'Connor, 42, are accused of violating Britain's Official Secrets Act.

Keogh has denied two charges of making a damaging disclosure of part of a government document. O'Connor denies a charge of making a damaging disclosure of a document passed to him illegally.
