Hostage tries to sell suit on ebay
Royal Marine Lance Corporal Mark Banks, 24,taken hostage by Iran has been given a dressing-down by commanders after trying to sell the free suit he was given by his captors on eBay.
Banks was ordered to remove the cheap, shiny suit from the internet auction site by the Ministry of Defence after seeking minimum bids of 99p. The listing had been up for 7 days before it was pulled and in that time it had not attracted any bids.
