Alex Belfield called into question Vine’s honesty and tried to publish family and friends’ phone numbers, court hears
A man who was jailed for stalking the broadcaster Jeremy Vine has apologised in court after being sued over the campaign of harassment and abuse he waged against the broadcaster.
Vine sued Alex Belfield for defamation and harassment less than a year after the latter’s conviction for stalking him and others. The high court heard Belfield had made several untrue allegations against Vine that called into question his honesty, as well as trying to publish his family and friends’ phone numbers online and encouraging people to call him up while he was working.
