A regional title has agreed to remove a story about an offender caught with indecent images of children following an IPSO complaint despite defending the accuracy of its coverage. The Falkirk Herald has voluntarily agreed to delete a story about an offender who had pleaded guilty to the possession of indecent photographs or pseudo-photographs of children. The agreement has been made after the offender, who suffers from autism, complained to the Independent Press Standards Organisation about the story, although the Herald maintained in its defence that it was an accurate report. The case bears similarities to that of arsonist Nicola Clayton, who last month succeeded in getting Lancs Live to remove a story about her conviction after she made a complaint to IPSO. The offender further claimed to omit details of his autism was misleading and that he was being discriminated against because of his condition, while the publication of the story and his address represented a breach of privacy. Denying any breach of Code, the Herald provided contemporaneous notes from the reporter, who was present in court, to support its position. The Herald added his address had been made public in court and it was therefore entitled to publish it, noting the story was a court report in accordance with the principle of open justice.
