Sun and Mirror in contempt case over Jo Yeates stories

[The Dragon Master]

The Sun and Daily Mirror are facing contempt of court proceedings over the way they reported the hunt for the killer of Jo Yeates last December.



The High Court has granted the attorney general permission to bring a case against the publishers of the tabloids.



The allegations concern stories about the arrest of the Bristol landscape architect's landlord, Chris Jefferies, who was later released without charge.



Miss Yeates's body was found on 25 December after an eight-day search.



She had vanished after returning to her basement flat in Bristol's Clifton area on 17 December. Her body was found on a grass verge about three miles away in Failand on Christmas Day.
