Sky News has apologized for sharing ‘misleading information’ in relation to the reported ‘disappearance’ of a person it believes was a man of Kenyan origin who fell from a plane in London.
“Sky News regrets that our reporting was founded on misleading information,” explained the British Broadcaster in a statement on its website.
The apology came hours after Sky News pulled down an investigative article that had “revealed” the identity of the stowaway who fell off a Kenya Airways plane in London.
All this coming after the Daily Nation published an exclusive story of the man whose photographs were published by Sky News as the stowaway who fell from the plane.
Cedric Isaac Shivonje, who met the Daily Nation in a Kenyan prison, said the photos used by Sky News as those of a Paul Manyasi, the alleged stowaway, were his.
