The Justice Secretary is looking
The Justice Secretary is looking to sack the boss of the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) after a review found wrongly jailed Andrew Malkinson was failed and could have been exonerated nearly a decade earlier.
Mr Malkinson, who spent 17 years in prison for a rape did he not commit, said the CCRC “obstructed my fight for justice and cost me an extra decade wrongly imprisoned”, as he called for a complete overhaul of the body and repeated demands for its chairwoman Helen Pitcher to be fired in light of the findings.
Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood said Ms Pitcher was “unfit to fulfil her duties” and she was seeking her “removal from that position” in the wake of the report – news Mr Malkinson welcomed.
His 2003 conviction was quashed last summer after years protesting his innocence.
