The trial of two suspected terrorists, Erol Incedal, a British national of Turkish origin, and Mounir Rarmoul-Bouhadjar, a British national of Algerian origin, who are both 26 and from London, was delayed until October. The Court of Appeal recently blocked the government's attempt to hold the first completely secret criminal trial, ruling that while the "exceptional" nature of the case necessitated that the "core of the trial" remain private, the principle of open justice required that certain elements be disclosed.
