Banned book - The Terrorist Hunters by Andy Hayman.

Copies of a book by Scotland Yard's former anti-terrorism chief were today removed from the shelves after the Attorney General obtained a last-minute injunction preventing it from going on sale.

The ban on sales of The Terrorist Hunters by Andy Hayman was issued by a High Court judge just before midnight after a hearing conducted by telephone conference call.

The book concentrates on Mr Hayman's years as Assistant Commissioner for Specialist Operations at Scotland Yard, which included dealing with the July 2007 bomb attacks and his call for a public inquiry into the events leading up to Britain's first suicide bombings.

Mr Hayman is also highly critical of the way in which the Government's emergency committee, Cobra, functioned claiming it spent too much time discussing politics and not enough time on urgent operational matters.
