A London concert next month by singer Michael Jackson is breaching charity law,
according to an investigation by SocietyGuardian. Sergent Cancer Care, a charity
stated as benefiting from the fundraising event, says it has not signed a commercial
participator contract with the event’s promoter, thereby contravening Part II of
the Charities Act 1992.
