HC Deb 17 January 1989 vol 145 c154W
Mr. Speller

To ask the Attorney-General if he will meet the Director of Public Presecutions to discuss possible action under the Obscene Publications Act in respect of newspaper photographs showing the corpse of a murder victim in Surrey in the week beginning 12 December.

The Attorney-General

The Crown Prosecution Service has considered possible action under the Obscene Publications Acts in respect of the photographs referred to but has concluded that there is no realistic prospect of a conviction for an offence under those Acts. I agree with that view.

Forward to
