'Urgent' action on witness rules

'Urgent' action on witness rules

The need to protect the identities of witnesses in certain court cases will be addressed "very urgently", Justice Secretary Jack Straw has said.

Mr Straw told BBC Radio 4's Today programme he was very concerned about a ruling by the Law Lords that restricts the use of anonymous witnesses.

The ruling quashed a murder conviction of a man who was convicted with the aid of anonymous evidence.

Police have warned that serious criminals could walk free as a result.
