Ministers accused of secretly shelving deal to pay compensation to victims of terrorist attacks abroad - Telegraph: "Ministry of Justice said the scheme to make payments to victims of attacks in Mumbai, Bali and other atrocities was now under review even though it had been backed by the Conservatives in opposition.
The decision to look at the payments again has angered victims and comes in the week when the Government agreed to pay millions of pounds to British detainees in Guantánamo Bay.
'It is absolutely disgraceful that we are being left hanging like this,' said Will Pike, who was left paralysed below the waist after jumping from a third floor window to escape gunmen rampaging through the Taj Mahal hotel in Mumbai."
