I would say that's covered under double deopardy, but that's another human right our Labour dear leaders have unburdened us with.

I don't know if it's urban legend or not and wether it happened here or abroad, but didn't a priest get an indefinite prison sentence for refusing to divulge details of a murder obtained under confession. Even if it happened again iu;m sure the European Court would overturn it.
