[2002] UKPC 42

Even though the defendants had published an inaccurate newspaper article as to the circumstances in which the Government of Mauritius was proposing to acquire an offshore patrol vessel, there was no evidence that the publication was of "such a nature as to disturb public order or public peace", contrary to s.299(1)(b) Criminal Code of Mauritius.
