When solicitor John Paul Graney was shown evidence of the material perjury he had sworn in his statutory declaration of April 26 1988 he agreed to swear the affidavit copied below. Recorder John Fryer-Spedding also had four copies of Graney's statutory declaration and the evidence that it contained Graney's perjury placed before him as well. He said that he had not seen it? Notice that solicitor Graney alleged the information had been given to him by the Green's. However, it was he who was acting for the Green's in the dispute over the alleyway land later subject to case NE401650 only shortly before he swore his perjury contained within his statutory declaration of April 26 1988. John Paul Graney still remains under the protection of Northumbria Police. This raises a very large question mark over the reasons for the Northumbria Police protection of Graney? I and my wife had approached detective Sergeant McGann and detective constable Storey with the evidence of Graney's perjury at Houghton-le-Spring Police Station. At their suggestion, we made an approach to solicitor Graney with the evidence we had to show his perjury. That evidence had been shown to DC McGann and DC Storey. McGann and Storey told us that perjury in civil court actions was not a police matter. In December 1998, Inspector Atkinson of Northumbria Police stationed at Washington Police Station, Tyne-Wear, also told me that perjury used in civil court actions was not a police matter. When I asked Inspector Atkinson if he was a mason , he replied that as he was not required to give that information so would not answer it. Perjury is in fact a criminal offence regardless of where and what it is sworn for. It was and still remains a matter for police to act on.
