Json parsing in android from URL

I m getting json from URL but getting error in parsing. It is saying illegal character. Can you guys point out where is the culprit? MyCode

public String GetJString(String url) {

    // Making HTTP request
    try {
        // defaultHttpClient
        DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);

        HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
        HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
        is = httpEntity.getContent();          

    } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    try {
        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                is, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        String line = null;
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            sb.append(line + "\n");
        }
        is.close();
        json = sb.toString();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.e("Buffer Error", "Error converting result " + e.toString());
    }

    Log.d("cstch",json);

        return json;

}

Your JSON is not valid .

Got following error

Error: Parse error on line 1: ...1658","description":"(1658)Simones Wide -----------------------^ Expecting 'STRING', 'NUMBER', 'NULL', 'TRUE', 'FALSE', '{', '[', got 'undefined'

Some brackets are missing at this point .

1658","description":"(1658) Simones Widerstand gegen\u00fcber David br\u00f6ckelt.

As per the error message, it's an illegal character in the querystring part your URL. You should use URLEncoder.encode() on that URL.
