By Press Gazette [1] Published 30 May 2012Journalist speaks out after no charges are brought against her
Guardian reporter Amelia Hill has accused police and prosecutors of pursuing a “sinister attempt to chill public interest journalism”.
Hill was first questioned by police in September after a 51-year officer was arrested for allegedly supplying information to the paper.
Yesterday she was told that no charges would be brought against her for aiding and abetting misconduct in public office or for breach of the Data Protection Act.
