A prosecution barrister has accused The Sun of publishing confidential material that could have helped those planning a terrorist attack in London. The comments during the closing speech by Jonathan Reese QC was giving his closing speech in the case of three journalists from the newspaper, who are alleged to have made corrupt payments to public officials in return for information.Reese showed the jury that an article in the paper about the dangers of a "Mumbai-style" terrorist attack was partially based on information their reporters paid for from a 999 call-centre operator. Included in the piece was the fact that armed police had been based 3 minutes from Canary Wharf to counter the threat, information which could have been "invaluable to terrorists planning an attack".The prosecution QC also claimed that stories in The Sun about detainees held at Colnbrook immigration detention centre, sourced from a guard who worked there, were "embellished and inaccurate" in attempting to claim the inmates were enjoying a luxury life-style. He also reminded the jury about evidence that the articles had raised anxieties amongst the defendants and staff about how they were being regarded by people outside Colnbrook.The Sun had a clear agenda of portraying anything done for Colnbrook inmates as "helping foreign crooks and rapists" he said noting that activities for inmates were curtailed "because of the risk of bad publicity". He also asked the jury to rule that the paper ran stories on a high-profile murderer only because they were "interested in stoking public hatred for this man”, and that the stories had the effect of costing the public money as security around him in prison had to be stepped up after they appeared.However, summing up for journalist Tom Wells, Adrian Keeling QC told the jury that his client's stories about the detention centre were more than just "tabloid tittle-tattle" and instead exposed important matters of public interest. He reminded the jury that all sides in court had accepted his client's pieces were factually accurate and that no complaints had been received about them from either the Home Office or Serco, the private company running the centre.Keeling told the court "it would be a lovely world if whistle-blowers were never paid" or where "NHS staff are never suspended or side-lined and members of Parliament reported themselves over their second homes and duck-ponds." The jury, he continued would have to "draw the line" over what type of stories over which is was justified for reporters to pay sources and if this case was serious enough to cross the "high threshold of criminal conduct".In the dock alongside Blake and Wells are two other Sun journalists and a reporter for the Daily Mirror. All of the defendants deny all of the charges and the trial continues.
