Tuesday 27 July 2004 -

Harrogate Magistrates'Court -
update re application to vary bail conditions
 
An application was made to Harrogate Magistrates to vary the bail conditions imposed on Lindis Percy around USAF Menwith Hill. 
 
The application was again refused.  Harrogate Magistrates imposed the same conditions - not to cross the yellow line and not to go with 5 metres of the circumference of USAF Menwith Hill.  This was despite Inspector Penfold giving evidence under oath and admitting that the bail conditions were uncertain.  Bail conditions have to be certain and reasonable.
 
We now intend to  make an application to the High Court to vary these uncertain and unreasonable bail conditions (Lindis has been spuriously arrested 6 times recently because of different interpretations by different MDPA officers).
