Season 5, Episode 17: The Kafkaesque Trial of Craig Murray

We examine the politically motivated prosecution of former UK Ambassador, author and human rights crusader Craig Murray who was recently convicted and sentenced to eight months in prison for his dispatches during the controversial trial of his fellow pro Scottish independence activist and ex First Minister Alex Salmons.

Investigative journalist Mohamed Elmaazi, who reported extensively on the Murray case , methodically walks us through the proceedings from start to finish.

Labor rights activist Dr Deepa Driver shares her experiences working with Murray on a variety of causes.

John Shipton, the father of Julian Assange, expresses his admiration and gratitude for the 10 years Murray has worked on behalf of his persecuted son.
