 list of soldiers killed in Iraq. She was arrested under the Serious 
 Organised Crime and Police Act 2005, which requires police permission to 
 make a protest within one kilometre of Parliament. She was given a 
 conditional discharge after being found guilty. Lord Falconer of 
 Thoroton, the Lord Chancellor, later denied that the prosecution was an 
 "undue infringement" of individual liberties.

 CRIME?: Refusing to serve in Iraq. 
  
 WHAT HAPPENED: The RAF doctor served in Iraq twice, but refused to 
 return for a third spell of duty last June. He argued that the military 
 action was not justified as Iraq had not attacked the UK or one of its 
 allies. He is being court-martialled, facing five charges of refusing to 
 comply with an order. After a pre-trial hearing rejected his argument 
 that the orders were unlawful, the court martial will open at Aldershot 
 next week.

 AGE: 56 
  
 CRIME?: Maintaining an anti-war vigil outside Parliament. 
  
 WHAT HAPPENED: Mr Haw has become a permanent fixture in Parliament 
 Square since June 2001, when he erected a series of placards berating 
 Tony Blair and President George Bush. The Serious Organised Crime and 
 Police Act 2005, was designed mainly with his vigil in mind. But the 
 High Court ruled that the legislation did not cover his protest as it 
 could not be applied retrospectively. The Government is appealing 
 against that decision.
