Cases

Guardian News and Media Ltd & Ors in HM Treasury v Ahmed & Ors

Held

Allowing the application:

Where an open ended anonymity order has been made it should remain in force throughout the proceedings at whatever level unless set aside. The orders engaged both Articles 8 and 10. Karako v Hungary was not authority for the proposition that reputation does not fall within the scope of Art 8, but was rather concerned with cases where the attack on an individual's reputation does not interfere with his private life so as to undermine his personal integrity. However, there was a powerful general public interest in identification which, on the facts, outweighed the effects on the individual's private life.
