Lincolnshire Police want to speak with two men in connection with alleged juror intimidation at Lincoln Crown Court.

It was reported two men walked into a secure area of the court on 2 April, with one of the men appearing to take an image of jurors.

Officers released photographs of the men and urged anyone who can identify them to contact the force.

It is an offence to intimidate or harm a witness or juror, police said.
