News in brief
Halima Aziz—a Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) lawyer— has been awarded £600,000, after being wrongly accused of inciting a riot. Aziz was alleged to have blamed Jews for the 11 September 2001 terrorist attacks and expressed anti-American sentiments, while outside Bradford Magistrates in October 2001. She was suspended from duty, but in 2002 cleared of the allegations. The employment tribunal accepted that the remarks had not been made.
