This episode finds out how a young Tamil refugee is able to fight for his reputation despite having no money to do so.

Once hailed as a hero in his community after he embarked on a lengthy hunger strike to highlight the civil war in Sri Lanka, he then went to zero and even received death threats after two of Britain's biggest tabloids said he'd faked it all by secretly eating burgers.

With the help of Britain's biggest libel firm in his corner, we follow his fight back.
