Christopher Jefferies tells Leveson of 'media witch hunt'

The man who was arrested, then later released without charge over the murder of Joanna Yeates, has told the inquiry into press standards about what he called the media witch hunt against him.

Christopher Jefferies said the coverage during and after his arrest had left people with the impression that he was a "very weird character" who was "best avoided".

The BBC's Nicholas Witchell reports from the hearing.
