Mr Roberts-Smith, who left the defence force in 2013, has not been charged over any of the claims in a criminal court, where there is a higher burden of proof.The former special forces corporal sued three Australian newspapers over a series of articles alleging serious misconduct while he was deployed in Afghanistan between 2009 and 2012 as part of a US-led military coalition.

At the time the articles were published in 2018, Mr Roberts-Smith was considered a national hero, having been awarded Australia's highest military honour for single-handedly overpowering Taliban fighters attacking his Special Air Service (SAS) platoon.The 46-year-old argued the alleged killings occurred legally during combat or did not happen at all, claiming the papers ruined his life with their reports.His defamation case - which some have dubbed "the trial of the century" in Australia - lasted over 120 days and is now rumoured to have cost up to A$35m ($22.5m; £16.9m).

In June 2023 Federal Court Justice Antony Besanko threw out the case against The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald, and The Canberra Times, ruling it was "substantially true" that Mr Roberts-Smith had murdered unarmed Afghan prisoners and civilians and bullied fellow soldiers.He also found that Mr Roberts-Smith lied to cover up his misconduct and threatened witnesses.

Additional allegations that he had punched his lover, threatened a peer, and committed two other murders were not proven to the "balance of probabilities" standard required in civil cases.

The "heart" of the appeal case was that Justice Besanko didn't given enough weight to Mr Roberts-Smith's presumption of innocence, his barrister Bret Walker, SC said.But others are not convinced.

"You can subscribe to this scheme but you might never take off," says James Glenton, 36, from York, who is still hoping for compensation for a cancelled Wizz Air flight a year on.In July 2023, Wizz cancelled Mr Glenton's flight from Leeds Bradford Airport to Wroclaw in Poland and rebooked him on one from London Luton the next day, he says.

That meant he lost two days of his holiday, the parking he'd booked at Leeds Bradford, money spent on his hotel, and the petrol costs getting to Luton and back, he says.According to Mr Glenton, Wizz has blamed air traffic control restrictions for the cancellation so won't refund him. But he claims the airport denies this and has told him it was the airline that cancelled the flight directly.
