Brother of accused pilot wins claim

The brother of a pilot falsely accused of involvement in the September 11 terror attacks has won a High Court damages action against the Metropolitan Police.

But the wife of Algerian Lotfi Raissi - who was the first person accused of participating in the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon - had a similar claim rejected by a judge in London.

Sonia Raissi and Mohamed Raissi were each seeking damages in excess of £150,000 in the action.
