Good News in Decommissioners Preliminary Hearing

The defence then came back to say there were two linked issues that required consideration.
i) The circumstances in which a judge may withdraw a defendant’s defence;
ii) Whether the facts relied on by the defendants’ amounts to a defence in law.
The points of law up for scrutiny were from the:
Criminal Damage Act 1971,
Criminal Law Act 1967,
The Common Law Defence of Necessity.

resisting war crimes is not a crime
It is anticipated that the prosecution will go to the court appeal to challenge at-least one if not all three of the decommissioners defences. They have a week in which to do this if they so wish.
