    In Context
    In June 2001 the Parole Board recommended the release of Thompson and Venables, both aged 18, on life licences and they were moved to undisclosed locations with new identities.

    Stories emerged of threats by protesters to publish a recent photo of one of the teenagers on the internet, which is mainly out of the jurisdiction of UK law.

    The Manchester Evening News was found guilty of contempt of court over an article about the boys' whereabouts published just hours after the Parole Board ruled they could be released.

    The court order prohibiting publication of any information likely to lead to their identification is still in place.
