Spy Shayler gets six months jail for revealing security secrets

RENEGADE British spy David Shayler was yesterday sentenced to six months in prison after he was convicted of revealing security secrets.

Shayler, 36, who remained seated throughout the sentencing, looked resigned as he stood up and was led from the dock at the Old Bailey.

Trial Judge Mr Justice Moses said the defendant had shown "blinkered arrogance" in committing the offences.
