## Key points

- A judge will decide whether the allegations can be published.
- PPT denies the claims and is seeking an injunction.
- The media argues publication serves the public interest.

## Summary

A High Court judge is due to decide whether a celebrity, identified only as PPT, can prevent ITN and The Guardian from publishing allegations of sexual misconduct involving girls and young women. The case raises a conflict between the proposed reporting’s claimed public interest and PPT’s argument that publication could seriously endanger his life.

At a two-day hearing, the court heard that the media organisations had spoken to more than 100 people, including 30 first-hand witnesses, and that PPT denies the allegations. His lawyer said he had attempted suicide twice after learning of plans to publish; the media organisations’ lawyer called the injunction argument unprecedented and said mental health services, rather than restrictions on reporting, should address the risk. Mr Justice Nicklin is scheduled to give his decision at 2pm on Tuesday.
