Speaking out for the first time and exclusively to ITV News, John Sutherland and Tom Le Sauteur say they are being 'restricted' from talking about the incident.

In their first public statement since the verdict and talking exclusively to ITV News, John Sutherland, 61, and Tom Le Sauteur, 36, say their employer - Jersey Ambulance Service - has told them not to speak about the incident, their suspension or the police investigation that led to their charge.

Both men were convicted at Jersey's Royal Court of breaching health and safety law following an eight-day jurats trial - they had denied any wrongdoing.The pair say they are "incredibly moved and humbled by the support of fellow frontline workers, family, friends and the public". Medics will hold a peaceful protest to stand in solidarity with their colleagues outside Jersey's Ambulance Station in St Helier at 6pm on Friday 28 June.
