Statement From Jordan Williams

Statement From Jordan Williams

Relating to today’s High Court jury decision in Jordan Williams’ defamation claim against Colin Criag, Mr Williams says, “These proceedings were never something I wanted. However, Mr Craig’s false accusations and public threats to sue me could not go unanswered.”

“Of course I am pleased that a jury, having heard all of the evidence, and not just what the media have reported, have made such a finding.”

“Thank you to all of those who have supported me over the last twelve months, particularly my family, friends, colleagues and the donors to the organisations I work for. The support from my legal team, Peter McKnight, Ali Romanos and John Langford, has been unfaltering from day one.”
