Leeds Fascists Tony White & Kevin Watmough Arrested! Simon Sheppard On The Run!

Auntie | 14.07.2008 18:23 | Anti-racism | Sheffield

Tony White & Kevin Watmough have been taken into custody today. Simon Sheppard and Steve Whittle (AKA Luke O'Farrell) are on the run.

Leeds Nazis Kevin Watmough and Tony White were today taken into custody after allegations were made by members of the jury in the Simon Sheppard race-hate case that White had been attempting to pervert the course of justice. White turned up for court wearing his usual black bomber jacket, which today was littered with Nazi badges. Several jurors then complained to the judge that he had previously followed them home and shouted threats at them. Both men were immediately taken in for questioning, and so far as is known are still in custody.

Sheppard and his co-defendant Steve Whittle have gone on the run after guilty verdicts came in against both of them on Friday. According to their barrister, Shepperd, another paedophile linked to the British People's Party, also slit his wrists over the weekend.

Watmough, who was sat at the rear of the court on Friday when the verdicts were read out burst into tears and began sobbing. With Sheppard's prosecution having huge implications for Watmough's 'Redwatch' and 'Blood & Honour / Combat 18' sites, and possible conspiracy to pervert the course of justice charges pending, we hope there'll be plenty more tears in the Watmough household to come.

A full report will follow.
