Pair jailed over Bush-Blair memo leak

Date: May 10, 2007

Author: * Staff Writer(s)

QUOTE: A civil servant and an MP's researcher were today jailed for leaking a secret memo about a meeting on Iraq between Tony Blair and George Bush. The four-page memo recorded April 2004 Oval Office talks between the two leaders on events in the city of Falluja. Its contents were so secret that much of the trial was held behind closed doors with the press and public excluded.
