Doubtless, if his name had never made it into the papers on this matter, he would have settled quietly. But his name was released, and he has spent 12 months with these allegations hanging over him.

If he had requested an injunction early on, to prevent the matter becoming freely available, I have no doubt that there would be some here claiming he was muzzling the press.
