Why now?
Why the sudden change of heart, when many sites reporting on it previously (or rather, reporting on the 'blackout' that served only to make it more newsworthy!) were in receipt of warnings from commenters that they may be in breach, prompting them to take down their posts, and 'Orphans of Liberty' receiving a police takedown request on a post QM wrote for it (which will now be going back up).
It may be that those first two weeks were entirely taken up with legal wrangling over the rumoured judge's orders that this matter not be reported, it may be that (as QM thinks) the foreign media had got holds of the story, it may be that so many other trials are ongoing it got too big to suppress.
One thing's for sure - the cat is now well out of the bag. It'll be interesting to see the left-wing press handle it, won't it?

'Orphans of Liberty' receiving a police takedown request
Interesting. Any chance of posting that...here or there...so we can all see what one looks like ?

No, sorry. Publication of such is itself contempt of court.
The 2011 Census will show a mooselimb population exceeding that of Wales.
Deliberate?
You bet. If you want to take down a society from within you import a culture so at odds with the host it literally implodes.
Job done.

Although newspapers never allow comment on pending cases and sometimes names and details are hidden in the interests of a fair trial, I still think there was a determined effort by 'someone' to hush this up.
I seem to remember there was friction between the Police (Govt) and the media when a TV documentary was pulled in the interests of racial harmony?
We could be witnessing the death throes of multiculturalism.
All the reporting restrictions did was confirm many people in the belief that the alleged problem had been ignored for years because some people were regarded as above the law, and that this was still the case because they enjoyed a level of protection which other defendants did not get, particularly if they were white men charged with rape or child-killing.
Rather than aid a calm and objective trial, all the reporting restrictions did was to suggest guilt and a cover-up, if not a deliberate state attempt to fix the trial for racial purposes.

Oh, I don't know - the first link I saw on Twitter when the story broke was the 'Independent'...
"If you want to take down a society from within you import a culture so at odds with the host it literally implodes."
It certainly feels that way.
"...I still think there was a determined effort by 'someone' to hush this up."
On the judge's orders (allegedly). Yet as WoaR points out:
"Rather than aid a calm and objective trial, all the reporting restrictions did was to suggest guilt and a cover-up, if not a deliberate state attempt to fix the trial for racial purposes."
Quite.
Whatever happened to Operation Windermere, seems to of disappeared down the memory orifice.
