Finally, Mahmood has been exposed as a liar by a High Court judge. Given that The Sun has recently been moaning about the waste of money involved in prosecuting Murdoch journalists and executives, it seems a touch odd that their star reporter’s lies should cause the police, prosecution and defence teams to waste of enormous sums of money in a trial that has collapsed due to Mahmood’s lies – and which, according to the judge, should never have been brought at all.
For those who don’t know, Mahmood operates classic entrapment stings, posing as a sheik or a wealthy Asian entrepreneur in order to get his targets pissed and then covertly films them committing indiscretions which are then splashed all over the Murdoch press the following Sunday. Despite his pompous assertion that “when exposing criminal wrongdoing, the ends always justify the means”, less than 50% of Mahmood’s stings result in criminal prosecutions and both the police and the CPS are sharply critical of his methods. The other 50% of his stories are deliberately fabricated stitch-ups involving manipulated “evidence” and he’s been getting away with it for far too long.
This cunt needs stabbing.
