Dad of autistic girl sees off Walsall Council gag order

Dad of autistic girl sees off Walsall Council gag order Bethany, 17, who has autism and extreme anxiety, has been locked in a seclusion room for almost two years.

Her father Jeremy, 50, had been fighting an injunction sought by Walsall Council banning him from discussing her plight.

The council said it wanted to protect Bethany by shielding her identity.

Her family, whose surname cannot be published, told BBC File on 4 she has been kept in seclusion at St Andrew's Hospital in Northampton for 21 months. BBC Birmingham
