- 12 years ago
Britain's highest court has ruled against the government over the use of secret evidence to justify imposing home curfews on people accused of "terrorism".
Nine judges unanimously upheld an appeal by three men on Wednesday, who argued it was against their human rights to be subject to "control orders" - a form of house arrest based on secret evidence they are not privy to and cannot challenge in court.
Jonah Hull spoke to Cerie Bullivant who was formerly held under such an order.
