BBC pay out £45k in libel damages
What's missing from this story?:
Quote:
Dr Muhammad Abdul Bari had brought libel proceedings in London's High Court over a broadcast in March.
His solicitor-advocate, Adam Tudor, told Mr Justice Eady a member of the public asked the panel about controversial protests that month by a group of Muslim men against a regiment of British troops parading in Luton on their return from Iraq.
In reply, a panellist suggested that despite having been asked many times to condemn the kidnapping and killing of British soldiers, Dr Bari had failed to do so and thereby implicitly condoned such acts.
