BBC


Two men have been charged under the Official Secrets Act following the leak to a newspaper of a secret government memo on US conducts in Iraq.
The Foreign Office document 'Iraq in the Medium Term' referred to "heavy handed" tactics in Falluja and Najaf.

Its contents were reported in the Sunday Times in May last year.

Ex civil servant David Keogh and ex MP's researcher Leo O'Connor, both from Northampton, will appear before Bow Street magistrates on 29 November.
