"The estimated cost of the police presence is more than £12m." So who should get fired for such a waste of police resources?
So whats the limit on how much society should spend to seek justice if someone raped you?

People who are far less well known are routinely arrested by the police for failure to turn up in court. There was no need for this expensive 24 hour guard.

And by removing that police protection, perhaps they are trying to entice him to provide some £12m or more of information in light of the likelihood of that wetwork?

I'm not sure if you are being facetious, but that's actually exactly the right question to ask. Not only would it be great to explicitly know the exact number, but that number should be the same no matter who the victim (or perpetrator) is.

I'm surprised he hasn't been smuggled out in a diplomatic crate. Some of the shenanigans that went on with diplomatic bags shows that some countries are prepared to do this. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1132544.stm The Soviets using one to transport a tractor shows the bags can be big enough to get a person out. http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/2234/is-there-such-...

Allegedly. Who knows if it's true or not?
Yes, that's why I wrote "seek justice".
