The following report has been pieced together from several reports we’ve received concerning today’s trial activities. If you were there and have further information to add, please feel free to use our ‘Contact Us’ page.
Neelu Berry and Sabine McNeill stood trial today on charges of conspiracy to commit witness intimidation. The action took place at Blackfriars Crown Court, Room 2, and from the outset it was clear that there would be issues regarding seating in the courtroom.
A group turned out to support Neelu and Sabine, and another came to lend support to the witnesses.
When time came to enter the court, the witness support group got to the seats more quickly, taking up the majority of the 11 available seats in the public gallery. Neelu and Sabine’s supporters entered shortly afterward, and were noticeably unhappy that the court would not allow anyone to remain in the room who was not seated.
All members of the public gallery had to leave the court to enable the jury to be sworn in, and during that time we understand some harassment took place in the hallway, with one person approaching a group of women and accusing them of being cult members—despite the large posted sign warning people not to discuss the case.
When he offered to help the group leave the cult, several people made their displeasure clear, but he persisted, and began describing the sexual abuse he fantasises cult members inflict on children. At that point, court officials were called over, and the person was spoken to.
Someone had seen him filming people in the court hallway, but by the time the officer spoke with him the images were not to be found on his phone. However, a warning was given in court regarding the illegality of taking photos either inside or outside the courtroom, and people were warned that any such activities would be be considered contempt of court. As well, those being photographed could complain that they were being intimidated and harassed.
While Judge Worsley refused Neelu’s request that all jurors not only swear their oaths before God, but also swear that they were not practising Satanists, the jury was somehow sworn in, and it was time for the public to try to reclaim their seats in the gallery.
Although the judge initially suggested that each defendant could have 5 court supporters, Sabine’s barrister, Mr Byrne, suggested that each defendant could have 3 supporters, and the witnesses could have the remaining 3; 2 seats in the gallery were to be kept free for the journalists in attendance while the witnesses were on the stand. The witnesses, when they testify, will be behind a screen, and must not be visible to anyone other than court officials.
You would be correct in inferring from this that no witnesses took the stand today; much of the day was taken up with mucking about with seating arrangements.
Sabine seems to think the current seating arrangement less than satisfactory, if her latest blog post is to be believed:
Interesting multiple-choice question: according to Sabine, anyone who doesn’t support either her or Neelu is perforce a Satanist? We wonder why she chose to password-protect this post…we’re sure it couldn’t be because she’s afraid of incurring the wrath of the court during her own trial.
Prosecutor’s opening statement
Eventually, the prosecuting attorney, Mr Attridge, was able to make his opening statement, in which he presented an overview of how the witness statements arising from Neelu’s arrest had made their way from Neelu to Sabine’s Whistleblower Kids blog. As the trial progresses, he will flesh out his arguments, but today he reviewed forensic evidence.
Both defendants have entered pleas of Not Guilty.
The trial continues tomorrow at 10 a.m., and it’s expected that 3 witnesses will testify for the prosecution.
Neelu requested the jurors swear they were not Satanists? LOL!
Thanks for the update of Day 1, EC. 🙂

Unfortunately, keeping phones on voice-record also breaches the law against recording within the court building. However, I do expect that there might be a stronger police presence tomorrow, now that they’ve been alerted to the situation. As usual, no one in authority expected the Hoaxtead mob to be as…well, mob-like as they are.

News gatherers (real ones) are taught and often have to be reminded that the general ban on recording and photography covers courts and court precincts. – Theoretically that might even include the streets around the court! Although of course that bit is rarely (if ever) acted upon; recording anything within the court building is a no-no. – At the first signs of harassment summon court staff/police.

They always do, they always will, as it is pretty impossible to stop. One way to put a stop to it is to not allow phones in at all.
They will secretly film the other side….they have a TOTALLY free range to do whatever, whewnever.
They abide to no one, no rules or law….nothing!

The jury didn’t hear Neelu’s request for the special oath, no.
Among those spotted were (in no order) Belinda, Dave Conaghan, Jake Clarke, David Efthyvoulou, Penny Pullen, Lee Cant, Androulla (from the Theatro Technis event last fall), John Banks, and a host of others.

The ‘Androulla question’ came from a third-party at this end…. The one we know of is short-ish, is/was quite attractive (dusky/sultry looking); and completely off her fucking head! She fled Glasgow in the late/70s early 80s. It is possible she was actually abused by a local paedo in the mid-70s. But that seems to have caused her to lose it completely, and she’s messed up a few lives with her paranoia and capacity to generate fiction! – Prime ‘Belinda material’! – TBH we’d be sorry to see her sucked into Belinda’s carnival.

Explains a lot. Absolutely nil idea of the law which many think is malleable to their perception of it.
Without mentioning any single person and despite it being a hobby horse of mine, I am convinced that a hard core of those driving this are psychopaths. All the elements are there :
A driving desire to be correct in any matter no matter what the facts are and despite being proved incorrect time and time again.
Latching onto a campaign without the slightest interest in the subject matter (the children are really meaningless) and attempting to present a moralist front of concern.
The gathering of others who have mental problems or are just plain unintelligent as useful fools who are discarded when no longer useful.
A fanatical determination to win each and every single battle (while losing the war)…it’s the fight that spurs them on and the desire to triumph over anyone and everyone (judges, police etc)
and more, much much more.

In principle I agree, though the Satan Hunter has been corrupting the internet on a massive scale with their libels and self-prejudicial postings for months now. The Judge and authorities in this case need to get to grips with what is going on in and around their court building at this trial before worrying about the postings on the internet, as those activities are going to have a huge impact on the witnesses, jury and others involved in this case.

Fact 1) Sabine has said many times that she is NOT a religious person and she does not think that god exist.
Fact 2) Belinda has several times said that she things the cross is a symbol of rudeness and that she is not a Christian having been quoted saying she is “Atheist”
Fact 3) there are many people who have visited Belinda’s House. All these people have seen secret rooms in a cellar and the inside of Belinda’s house is as the children described. (secret doors).
Fact 4) Inside Belinda’s house there are some statues in black color one of which is a man with horns or commonly known as a Satan. Some other statues are weird and frightening.
Fact 5) in June 2014 Belinda invited over 10 people to stay at her house ( I know 8 of them). So next day they was planning to attend Maggie Tutles Conference. During that night inside Belinda’s House drugs was freely available and also alcohol. many were drunk and high.as a result a Guy using the name of “Tobby” on Facebook was arrested at the conference allegedly for spiking a drink of one of the females who was there. No further action was taken and the guy traveled back to Liverpool.
Fact 6) Neelu Berry she is not Christian but a Hindu. so for attention seeking purpose she mention “Jesus” so to attract a divine attention from her fellow screw heads”.
All these “freaks” pretending to be Christians they have never attended any church never have received the Holly communion (they don’t even know what it is). But they know lots about Lucifer, Satan, and the devil.
Christians never think about any one other Jesus Christ, The virgin Mary and the father the God. A true Christian will avoid to mention “the enemy”.
So all these SRA fiasco is nothing other that a satanic promotion, to attract attention and convince people that satan is stronger that God. this is a crafty way by using negative advertising.
Rupert in a video with “puff Angie” he says that he was abused by his mother. Looking at his Facebook profile he displays a photo of him with his mother.
The whole case is a mirror reflection of satanists and child abusers who play out their fantasies by reflecting their true persona in to innocent people.
Since when anyone of us have seen photos of Sabine, Or Belinda, or Neelu or Puff Angie holding children? Or donate few pounds to children’s charities?
Oh Yes Belinda she defrauded a Charity which was created to help Iranian children.
