The Dropping Of Charges Is Almost In The Bag...

A teenager accused of staging a bomb hoax which forced a Peter Kay comedy show to be evacuated had to be removed from court after he started stripping down in front of the judge. The hearing for Omar Majed, 19, who appeared at Birmingham Crown Court via video-link from HMP Brinsford, was cut short after prison officers removed the defendant from the room when he started to take off his prison-issue grey tracksuit bottoms.

Yes, it's him again

Judge Andrew Smith KC was trying to address the defendant, who was not arraigned during the hearing due to the need for psychiatric reports, to let him know when he next needed to appear.

Or 'if' should he keep this up until the CPS gets cold feet.

A further case management hearing for Majed, of Saltley, Birmingham, who was charged with communicating false information to police contrary to the Criminal Law Act, was set for July 27 and a provisional date for a trial, lasting two weeks, was scheduled for November 3.

Once again, I'm forced to note no year is mentioned...
