Details

In January 2007 two leading barristers (from Matrix Chambers): Philippe Sands QC (the the prosecution) and Julian Knowles (or the defence) will be test the evidence on whether there would be sufficient grounds to indict the British Prime Minister for the crime of aggression against Iraq. They will examine a number of distinguished witnesses, including Members of Parliament, diplomats, international lawyers, civil servants, United Nations officials, policy advisors, Intelligence experts and journalists. The arguments and testimony gathered will be edited into a play by Richard Norton-Taylor which will examine the criminal implications of the British Governments' decision to use force against Iraq, and allows the audience, to decide whether an indictment in this case is proven.
