LONDON: British broadcasting watchdog Ofcom said Monday it was considering sanctions against China’s state broadcaster for airing an alleged forced confession by a UK national.
The programmes included footage of him appearing to confess to a criminal offence, and reported his conviction and an apology. He was identified in both but his face was blurred. The regulator has the power to fine broadcaster for breaching its code, and can revoke licences in the most serious cases. It “did not take sufficient steps to ensure that material facts had not been presented, omitted or disregarded in a way that was unfair to Mr Humphrey”.
