The specific charge hasn't been released at the moment but I guess it's to do with the "sexual harassment complaints".

You do know this case is "active" and it's against the law to insinuate such remarks!

Best take that up with the BBC because they've just said the same thing.

That's not new for British Broadcasting Corruption unit to make liable statements, it's there forte.

 

You on the other hand are responsible for starting a thread and making the insinuation-so you're answerable for you're own actions.

 

COPFS states it's an offence and carry's up to 2 year jail term(contempt of court) forums and social media platforms are not exempt! Therfore I would stop right now if I were you before you spend a wee holiday in Barlinnie

On every response there is a report inappropriate comment button.

1/ Once a criminal case becomes ‘live’ it is subject to the provisions of the Contempt of Court Act 1981. A case becomes ‘live’ following one of a number of legal triggers, including arrest

To satisfy the bar-room barrister, the charges have been made public now. Note that I'm commenting on what the charges are, not about the details of the charges.

 

The charges are "Attempted r ape and sexual assault".

Re: Alex Salmond arrested?

hopefully, either in April or September when we are down I will finally get to see the Sygun copper mine. We plan to go every time we are down but always find ourselves too busy to get there. We were also hoping to go to Llechwedd slate caverns some time.
