Excerpt:
A Muslim woman who was allowed to wear a full-face veil in court during her trial has admitted witness intimidation.
The jury trying Rebekah Dawson, 22, at Blackfriars Crown Court in London was discharged this afternoon after failing to reach a verdict after deliberating for more than 12 hours.
But in a dramatic twist after a short delay, Dawson came back into court and admitted the same charge of witness intimidation that she had denied at trial.
