Damages for Terror Suspects

A court of appeal ruling has cleared the way for two international terrorism suspects to claim damages for having control orders wrongly imposed on them for three and a half years. The judgment also raises the prospect that a third suspect will not be prosecuted for breaching the terms of his control order, which has also been quashed. The ruling, by three appeal court judges headed by Lord Justice Maurice Kay, upholds a previous high court judgment that the control orders against the three men should not merely be revoked but quashed because they should never have been made in the first place. The control order case involves three terror suspects who, for legal reasons, can only be named as AE, AF and AN. The decision to quash their control orders followed a landmark high court ruling that none of them had been given sufficient disclosure of the evidence against them to support the home secretary’s claims that they were engaged in terrorism-related activities.

Control Order suspect released

The Home Secretary has released a second Control Order suspect.

The Iraqi Kurd came to the United Kingdom in 2002, and consequently became an Imam in northern England.

It is alleged that he supported the Iraqi insurgency and was said to be a leading figure in local extremist circles.

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Grayling has said the Conservatives would review Labour’s £61m Prevent programme. Mr Grayling told the Jewish Chronicle he had “serious misgivings” about the way the money designed to tackle extremism was being used.

Prevent is one of the 4 strands that make up the United Kingdoms Counter Terrorist Strategy. The other 3 strands are Protect Pursue and Prepare.
