Yep all of a sudden they drop there case. Gee, I wonder why
Quote:
Charges against a spy-service translator who said she had leaked a top-secret memo in an act of conscience to avert war in Iraq have been dropped.
Prosecutors said on Wednesday they did not have enough evidence to prove Katharine Teresa Gun broke the Official Secrets Act, although she freely said she had leaked the email memo which she said disclosed a U.S. plot to spy on U.N. members.
The government said it was not behind prosecutors' decision to drop the case. But political opponents of Prime Minister Tony Blair said authorities had decided to avoid a trial to dodge embarrassing disclosures about the arguments for war.
