Lawyers protest at media ban in terror case

Lawyers for some of the 17 Muslim terror suspects held in Canada for an alleged bomb plot have complained about a courtroom media blackout. The judge banned the media from reporting details of the case at the request of prosecutors. One of the defence attorneys who opposed the ban said: "Justice would be better served by accurately reporting what precisely happened in the court, rather than speculate".
