06 Dec A man has been cleared after being caught with a knife that didn’t belong to him

A 26 year old man has walked free from court, after a jury decided he didn’t know he was carrying a knife through Victoria station in London.

Shukri Harib was arrested at the police station, after he lost his ticket and a police officer found the knife in his bag. Mr Harib claimed he had not checked what was in the bag before using it.

Today, a jury ruled he was not guilty.
