Why Did the News of the World & Sunday Times (2 Rupert Murdoch Newspapers) Not Mention Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood’s 1998 Sting Article when reporting on Magician Alex Smith aka Hypnotist Jonathan Royle in 2000 about his Autobiography & time as Britain’s Biggest Ever Media Prankster ?
PLEASE SHARE THE LINK TO THIS INFORMATIONAL BLOG PAGE FAR & WIDE WITH EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO HELP ENCOURAGE THEM TO CONTACT THEIR LOCAL MP’S TO DEMAND THAT THEIR MP’S LOBBY PARLIAMENT FOR LEVESON 2
On Tuesday 29th November 2022 a Parliamentary Lobby Event was organised and held by HACKED OFF – (The Campaign for a Free & Accountable Press) with help and support from TRUTH DEFENCE and also AVAAZ at The Houses of Parliament in Westminster, London.
This event was full to capacity, I attended in person and was delighted to be given the chance to share my experiences as a Victim of Rupert Murdoch’s “Fake Sheikh”Mazher Mahmood which are explained in detail at www.circusofthemind.net
In short the event illustrated numerous reasons why we need to convince the Government to reinstate Part 2 of the Leveson Inquiry urgently as in right now..
You can help by writing to your MP encouraging them to Lobby Parliament to have it reinstated, the more of us that write to our MP’s from all over the UK the more it could have the result of getting something done about this.
You can write to them easily and rapidly using this useful online form kindly provided on the Hacked Off Website here
There now follow some images which you can see larger and thus easier to read versions of by clicking on each of them in turn, these show the room when we arrived before the event started, then the chairs when I had helped lay out the leaflets on the seats and of course then clear images of the leaflets themselves to give you more of an idea what was talked about and discussed at this event.
FOR MORE ON MY QUEST FOR TRUTH & JUSTICE FOR MEDIA ABUSE VICTIMS
I was also delighted that Comedian & Actor STEVE COOGAN who is a massive supporter of “Hacked Off” and seeking justice for victims of media abuse was at the event to give a short “Key Note” Speech as it meant that after almost 30 years I could in person pay him back the £20 he so kindly lent me after he had kindly also invited me to go Night Clubbing with himself & Comedy Legend Lee Evans after I had “Died on My Arse” as a support act (doing Stand Up Comedy) for Lee Evans that same night at Manchester’s Famous “Buzz” Comedy Club in early 1993.
Someone else took the picture and unfortunately it is a bit blurry, but for the record it was Steve who suggested that the picture be taken with him holding the £20 that he had just been reunited with after almost 30 years.
Also for the record I’d like to mention that Steve said he would be placing the money into the first Charity Collection tin that he saw!
Steve was also very complimentary about the short speech I gave in Parliament about my experiences as a victim of Rupert Murdoch’s “Fake Sheikh” Mazher Mahmood and my almost 25 year quest for Truth & Justice both for myself and also other victims of Media Abuse, Lies & Illegal Activities as detailed at www.circusofthemind.net
He kindly told me that he thought what I said was both “Extremely Powerful, Thought Provoking & Compelling” for which I am truly grateful for such feedback.
One of the many other things discussed during the event was the Police and Media Corruption involved in the Daniel Morgan Murder Investigations, this being the most investigated and as yet unsolved Murder in British History as explained at
And Yes at that link you will also discover that Rupert Murdochs “Fake Sheikh” Mazher Mahmood is mentioned in connection with interference into one of the investigations.
WE NEED LEVESON INQUIRY PART 2 REINSTATING MORE THAN EVER SO PLEASE
a) Write to your MP and demand that they Lobby Parliament & Government to help make this happen

Why Did the News of the World & Sunday Times (2 Rupert Murdoch Newspapers) Not Mention Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood’s 1998 Sting Article when reporting on me in 2000 about my Autobiography & time as “Britain’s Biggest Ever Media Prankster” ?
Among the images below are ones from The Sunday Time’s and also The News of the World’s Year 2000 articles mentioning my time as “Britain’s Biggest Ever Media Prankster” and the fact that aged 25 I had just released my autobiography up to that time.
Consider the fact that my autobiography contained (and still does) details of how I intended and attempted to expose the Unethical, Dishonest & often Illegal Techniques of Rupert Murdoch’s “Fake Sheikh” Mazher Mahmood back in 1998 and you might start to understand why they did not make any mention of me being jailed in 1999 due to Mahmood and his team actually being one step ahead of me (thanks to hacking and other means they knew I was trying to expose them) and using illegal entrapment techniques as this might draw attention to the 1999 Manchester Crown Court Judges comments where he made it clear he knew and accepted (based on the evidence I provided) that my intention was to obtain publicity and expose dishonest journalism rather than to commit any illegal actions.
The truth and reality of what went on in 1998 when, it is now known Mahmood and his team used Unlawful Information Gathering Techniques and other dishonest methods upon me including I would argue drugging me with a date rape style drug and other things that are fully detailed with links to evidence and facts can all be seen at www.circusofthemind.net
Also consider this, it was usual protocol for The News of the World to publish an article bragging that one of their stories had secured a Criminal Conviction in the courts when such had resulted and yet they never did any follow up article about me getting jailed in 1999.
Again I would suggest this is because they did not want to draw attention to the article they did on me and the fact that the Judge, Police & other parties clearly stated and accepted in Manchester Crown Court (and prior to it getting to court) that based on the evidence, information and facts that I supplied to the Police & Legal System, they fully accepted that it was all just a Publicity Stunt (me attempting to expose Mahmood’s often dishonest techniques) and that I had no intention of committing any Criminal Offense.
The next two images show the article that appeared in the year 2000 in The News of the World, notice they make zero mention of me having been jailed in 1999 as a consequence of the 1998 Sting Fabricated Article by Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood.
And here is a close up on the date that this was published in the year 2000 in Rupert Murdoch’s “News of the World” which also ran the nonsense “story” about me by Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood in 1998 as fully detailed & explained at www.circusofthemind.net
And here is the article that was published in Murdoch’s “Sunday Times” on the same day
The next few images are of similar articles on the same subject of my time as “Britain’s Biggest Ever Media Prankster” that were run by some other newspapers at various times.
The video below explains in some detail my attempt to expose Mazher Mahmood’s techniques back in 1998 which sadly backfired due to the so called “Fake Sheikh” and his team having used Illegal Techniques along the way to always be one step ahead of me and thus creating a situation as explained fully at www.circusofthemind.net where they knew what I was trying to achieve and thus managed to manipulate things in their favour.
Since the video above was recorded & during the years since the 1998 Fabricated “News of the World” article, (especially during 2021) tons more evidence illustrating my innocence and how I was and am indeed a victim of Mahmood’s Entrapment & I would argue (based on the evidence available) other Illegal techniques has come to light and thus my 2 Criminal Convictions for delivery of Counterfeit Coins (coins that were never proven to be fake as they were never tested) are being considered by The Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) as explained with documentary evidence & facts at www.circusofthemind.net
Also as illustrated by the image above and also by the information located at the next link, on 30th September 2022 I also filed a Privacy Intrusion Claim against News Group Newspapers (NGN) in relation to their 1998 “News of the World” Story and also some other matters going back as far as 1994.
As well as the truth with evidence & facts about my Criminal Appeals Case being laid out in full on www.circusofthemind.net you can also find the results of my past 24+ years to date research into the dishonest & often illegal techniques used by “Fake Sheikh” Mazher Mahmood on his many victims located on my extensive research blog page here
Incidentally the evidence that both the Police and Crown Prosecution Service knew as far back as 1994 (as mentioned in the above video) that Mazher Mahmood should not and could not be trusted as a witness of truth is mentioned in my Criminal Appeal Documents at www.circusofthemind.net
These facts were never disclosed to me or the scores of other Mahmood Victims, despite the fact that both the Police and CPS had and have a duty of disclosure and should of made us aware of this fact and also the many other occasions that Mahmood’s honesty was called into question during various legal cases over the years.
Watch this Space as they say as there is I feel sure much, much more that will come to light and the publics attention about the “Fake Sheikh” Mazher Mahmood and his dishonesty in the coming months & years..
Now that it is showing up on Public Domain Free to use websites and in Internet search results such as https://caseboard.io/cases/7be2194d-beb8-46c2-94ab-7f244e77cf4b I am now able to confirm that YES, I, Rochdale (Greater Manchester, England) Based Magician & Hypnotist Alex William Smith aka Jonathan Royle of www.magicalguru.com have indeed on 30th September 2022 filed a legal claim against News Group Newspapers (NGN) the publishers of The Sun and Formerly also of The News of The World.
Therefore YES I am one of the 150 odd new claims that have recently been filed against Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers for Privacy Intrusion, Unlawful Information Gathering and other Illegal Actions as alluded to in this recent The Guardian article
Some details of the Illegal Actions I believe and understand were undertaken against me are detailed on my blog page where I detail what (in separate legal matters) the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) are currently considering in terms of all the New Evidence I have that my Criminal Convictions are UNSAFE and should be overturned in the Court of Appeal.
YES it’s true that my attempt in 1998 to expose the dishonest and unethical techniques used to fabricate stories by the Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood slightly backfired landing me in prison briefly..
But now fast approaching 25 years later, thanks to masses of new evidence proving my innocence and illustrating what illegal actions I was victim to having finally come to light, The Real Truth is finally slowly but surely being made public.
PAST ARTICLES ABOUT MY QUEST FOR JUSTICE & TO CLEAR MY NAME:
Today Thursday 1st September 2022, I have received a letter from the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) in relation to my application submitted to them on 20th May 2022 asking them to take a close look at the massive amounts of new evidence I have that show that my Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood Related Criminal Convictions are both Unsafe and also the fact that I likely would never have been taken to court in the first place had the Crown Prosecution Service and/or Police disclosed to me the evidence and facts they knew of (as far back as 1994) that Mahmood should and could not be trusted as a witness of truth in any matters following the collapse of a case back in 1994.
Further details of all that and also proof of how Rupert Murdoch’s now disgraced former News of the World journalist DRUGGED ME as well as being guilty of ILLEGAL PHONE HACKING and unlawful information gathering together with long term Lying to the Police, CPS and Courts whilst also fabricating evidence and intimidating people behind the scenes can all be seen along with full details of my attempt in 1998 to expose the dishonest, unethical, immoral and often ILLEGAL techniques of “The King of Sting” Mazher Mahmood at this link:
Take a look for yourself at my Perfected Grounds of Appeal and also details of the NEW evidence I now have including that which illustrates that both the Police and Crown Prosecution Service both Knew (and discussed the matter with each other) as far back as 1994 that Fake Sheikh Mazher Mahmood Should not and could not be trusted as a witness of truth in any further matters and yet they still carried on taking cases to court on his evidence alone and at no point did the Police or CPS ever disclose this or the many other occasions that Mahmood’s Honesty & Credibility were called into question on numerous occasions over the years during various Court Cases & Legal Matters.

Regina V Alex William Smith Grounds of Appeal 24th May 2019
However in short, by comparing the above 2 documents with the 2 Grounds of Appeal Documents above them, it will become clear to you that the COA missed the point in many ways, mostly that, although I thought I had engineered & set things up and had the intention of exposing Mazher Mahmood, it turns out that I was ENTRAPPED by Mahmood and his team who were always one step ahead of me and applying pressure and intimidation behind the scenes as and when they felt it was needed.
One of their associates (my publicist at the time) also aided in this behind the scenes manipulation and in truth seeded the idea to try and expose the Fake Sheikh’s techniques into my mind in the first place. When that and the fact I now have seen proof (a receipt of payment to a Private Investigator) of Unlawful Information Gathering is considered it becomes clear that Mahmood not only knew that I knew who he was, but that further he (not me as I naively thought) was ultimately the Architect and Engineer of the whole series of events.
The only reason the Fake Coins were ever delivered to Mahmood by me is that he provided the money to get them in advance, his team member and another associate informed me where to obtain the coins (most likely from someone on their payroll) and they used veiled threats to manipulate me into getting them.
Plus of course as I knew who he was, I knew that the coins would never enter circulation and would instead ultimately have to be handed to the Police and I would fully co-operate with the Police (as I did) in a quest to bring some real criminals to justice at the same time.
This thought occurred into my Alcohol (they plied me with drinks) and Drug affected (they drugged my drinks) head & most certainly along with the behind the scenes veiled threats ultimately pushed me into doing what I never intended and really never wanted to do, namely doing anything that was actually breaking the law, something I could not have done anyway unless they supplied the money upfront (as they did) and they also supplied the information of where to actually obtain the coins (as they did) and who to look for.
I had only ever intended to ring a Local Massage Parlor (as I did) and arrange for some Girls to come and visit Perry Khan (Mahmood) when I was not there (something that was not and is not illegal) which I thought would be enough of a story for him (he had done stories in the past to other people doing same) for an article to appear and for me to then produce my recordings and evidence that would show he had distorted & lied in his story as he often did which would of given me a great story to sell to a rival newspaper.
However despite them knowing that I knew who they were this was not enough for them and they persisted to call me day after day asking me to get other things which I each time made excuses as to why I would not be able to supply such to them and I never did.
Then the intimidation & veiled threats behind the scenes escalated and I did finally agree to another meeting, but I did not intend to do anything which could ever be considered Illegal.
However you look at it I WAS ENTRAPPED into doing something I would never normally ever have dreamed of doing and Illegal & Dishonest methods & techniques were used by Mahmood, his team & associates in order to entrap and manipulate me in this manner.
Further I was likely Drugged (I have a witness statement from a Former Mahmood Employee who witnessed such happen in another Fake Sheikh Sting) in the way many other Mahmood Victims have claimed they were including Tulisa Contostavlos and her friends in order to make them more suggestible and compliant.
But it seems that the COA could not get their head around the very real facts that although I have always stated that I engineered the situation (and did indeed believe that 100% until very recently) the shocking real truth is that Mahmood in conjunction with my former Publicist had manipulated me into thinking it would be a good idea to try and expose Mazher Mahmood so that they could then be one step ahead and engineer things to do as much damage to my life and career as they possibly could so that (they hoped) I would never be able to fully expose the extent of their routinely dishonest and illegal actions in the course of manufacturing fabricated stories and situations against innocent victims like myself.
Another BIG QUESTION REMAINS = Why was Mahmood never charged for buying Counterfeit money from me?
After all if (as was accepted in Court & by the Police etc) I was collecting the coins in the course of Journalism to put together a true Public Interest Story for a rival newspaper, and yet I was charged with collecting & delivering them, why exactly was Mahmood not charged by the Police for providing the money to buy them and purchasing them?
Why was Mahmood afforded so called Journalistic License and yet I was not despite the fact the Police and Court/Judge etc at the time all agreed that the evidence showed that I was doing what I did with the intention of getting a story together to sell to a rival newspaper?
