Stevie_J Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 The Oldham Chronicle has just released the story that Greater Manchester Police have arrested Michael Nuttall, in relation to an alleged fraud committed against Trust Oldham. As such, we felt it appropriate to put out this announcement. Please note that any comments which we believe may impede the ongoing investigation, which may well end up being heard in Crown Court, will be removed from OWTB. Any comments which are potentially defamatory will also be removed from the site; this will not be reflective of whether we believe a statement to be true or false (it's not for us to judge), only whether we believe it would be defamatory should it not be true. The site, and by definition its staff, could be held liable for publishing any comments that were found to be defamatory and none of us get paid enough to take that risk! We would advise anyone who believes that they may be called as a witness in the investigation to refrain from commenting on OWTB, in relation to this issue. Cheers The OWTB team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Damage Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I would suggest maybe locking this thread and pinning it to the top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 The post will remain open, as all do, for as long as the OWTB community are willing to abide by the rules set forth. If people break the rules we will deal with that and if there's en masse breaking then of course we will lock the thread. Hopefully it will not come to that.

c.hill12 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Think it needs "alleged" adding at this point then locking. Alleged is in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Can anyone confirm if this would have been made public knowledge if the Chron had not got hold of the story. I'm trying to work out whether that's a circular question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsPete Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) Can anyone confirm if this would have been made public knowledge if the Chron had not got hold of the story. All cases that go to court are in the public domain. If they don't go then it's normally because there isn't enough evidence for a verdict of guilt. It's up to the police to decide whether to announce charges. Remember people are innocent until the point of conviction and lives can be ruined by arrests that don't lead to one.

Another had been investigated but was released without charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Remember people are innocent until the point of conviction and lives can be ruined by arrests that don't lead to one.

PlayItLivo Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Remember people are innocent until the point of conviction and lives can be ruined by arrests that don't lead to one.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'd like to echo this. A lot of us on here will know or have met Mike and not have a bad word to say, lets not leap to conclusions. Deleted his FB account now it seems. I've always found him to be quite a decent guy. What exactly is it he is alleged to have done? Written cheques out he shouldn't have done or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
