Cases

Turcu v News Group Newspapers Ltd (No.2)

Comment

There was little the Claimant could do to counteract the video footage. He had returned to Romania before the trial leaving his advocate to proceed on instructions given before departure. This aspect clearly troubled the Judge as the Claimant could give no evidence himself. Nor did the only other protagonist who could have done so; Dr Pasaraenu, whose witness summons was discharged by the Judge on grounds of self-incrimination. The case is bound to bring CFA funded cases right back into the spotlight.
