BrewDog chief executive James Watt has responded to revelations that he hired a private investigator to track the source of what he describes as a "coordinated criminal campaign of online harassment, defamation, blackmail, significant fraud and malicious communications".
Yesterday, The Guardian reported that Integritas Investigative Solutions approached some of the former employees who featured in the recent BBC documentary into his, and the company's, conduct.
Watt took to LinkedIn to set the record straight, saying that the campaign of harassment began two years ago, when "appalling lies about me" were sent by third parties, "operating through troll accounts", to a large number of his social media connections.
