Jacko ‘abuse film’ block bid

MICHAEL Jackson’s estate is trying to stop a film accusing him of child abuse airing in the UK.

Leaving Neverland is due to be shown on Channel 4 next month.

Lawyers for the estate claim the documentary breaks British broadcasting guidelines because film-makers did not get a response from his family.

In response Channel 4 said: “It’s appropriate that the denials Jackson made during his life are included in the programme.”
