Photo: suppliedPolice have charged an Aucklander with breaching a court suppression order for the man who murdered Grace Millane. A 63-year-old is accused of flouting a suppression order relating to the British backpacker's killer, Detective Inspector Scott Beard confirmed to the Herald in a statement today. Beard, the police officer in charge of the case, warned Kiwis about breaching suppression orders relating to the case just a day after the guilty verdict. However, breaking a suppression order is not an extraditable offence, those who do so overseas are beyond the reach of New Zealand law. After the High Court trial, Little said the breaches were "really disappointing" but was optimistic changes to the way court suppression orders were enforced were on the way.
