New Twitter user claims to reveal 14 injunctions

A new Twitter account has published details of celebrities who it claims have obtained super-injunctions.

Over two days, the anonymous user has revealed information about 14 alleged gagging orders.

The account is the latest on the social-networking website to publish such details, after an earlier user attracted over 130,000 followers when they named six stars who had allegedly gone to the courts.

The latest Twitter user, who jokingly names themselves 'Sue Mae', has already been followed by more than 5,000 people.

The validity of the claims is unknown. Jemima Khan has rubbished previous allegations posted on Twitter, adding that speculation about her was "untrue and upsetting".

Liberal Democrat MP John Hemming recently named Ryan Giggs as the footballer who obtained an injunction after an alleged affair with Imogen Thomas. Hemming told the House of Commons that he identified the Manchester United star because lawyers acting on the footballer's behalf were threatening to take Twitter users who named him to court and potentially jail them.

A spokesperson for Twitter previously said that it strives "not to remove tweets on the basis of their content".
