Students to give leaked papers back

The student newspaper that published confidential information about a possible fee rise at Victoria University has agreed to return the leaked documents.

The university won an interim injunction in the High Court at Wellington on Friday. But it was too late to stop Salient printing this week's edition.

Vice-Chancellor Pat Walsh on Monday backed down from a threat to ask a judge to extend the injunction to all 13 student magazines after Salient news editor Keith Ng removed the story from the Aotearoa Student Press Association news network and warned editors about the injunction.
