DXB v Persons Unknown and Others: QBD 28 Jan 2020

Claim brought pursuant to ‘the Venables jurisdiction’ for an order extending the anonymity of a child defendant beyond his 18th birthday. In this case, unlike the earlier cases in which this jurisdiction has been exercised, the claimant seeks a time-limited order (extending just over 22 months), rather than life-long anonymity.
