Summary:

  • Lawyer Andrew Malkinson, held captive for three hours, calls for an inquiry into his 17-year imprisonment.
  • Police investigation into Malkinson's case raises concerns about the effectiveness of initial inquiry.
  • Malkinson's release after two decades prompts discussions about potential miscarriages of justice.


A lawyer is demanding an inquiry into a long-standing case of a miscarriage of justice, where an individual spent over 17 years in prison before being released. The case has raised concerns about the effectiveness of the police investigation.


Decades of Imprisonment

Andrew Malkinson, who was held against his will for three hours, has finally been released after nearly two decades of captivity, with a significant portion of that time spent behind bars. His imprisonment lasted for 17 years, four months, and 16 days. Throughout this period, Malkinson's case has been under police investigation, casting doubts on the thoroughness of the initial inquiry.


The lawyer's demand for an inquiry comes as a plea for justice and accountability in a case that highlights the potential flaws within the justice system. As the calls for reevaluation grow louder, the focus remains on ensuring that such miscarriages of justice do not recur in the future.

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction?

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction? I'm joined now by the former senior military intelligence officer, Philip Ingram. Good to see you again, Philip. Now, of course, Russian forces have made some advances in recent days in Bakhmut, but on the whole, there's been very little movement on the front line in recent weeks and months. Why is that? Yeah, well, exactly. Day 374 of Vladimir Putin's 10-day Special Military Operation. And the Russians, we keep talking about this spring offensive. They're probing the front lines in different places. Bakhmut will more detail that in a moment, but further north, up around Kramina and in the south, around Donetsk, they're trying to see where their weakness is in the Ukrainian defences. And they're not really finding any. The things that are influencing at the moment, the weather, the ground is softening up. ...

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis People are packing up in their cars. They're getting out of here. A few days before I found myself standing there on the edge of Kharkiv, watching those first tank shells hit into the apartment blocks in Saltyvka, my editor, Louis Emmanuel, had asked me to come up with something to be published on the day of the war, if the war began, explaining to readers why this was happening. And I was hoping it would never be published. It was, and the answer I came up with was, probably in the simple balance of power. I quote it, Russia's military is at its strongest and most capable since the Cold War. Its public finances are also in good order, and Mr Putin may believe he is well placed to bear the costs of the conflict and inevitable sanctions. We'll come back to that in a second. The West is conversely at a moment of historic econo...

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired?

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired? I mean, he caveated his remarks so that he wasn't departing from the official government line, which is that Ukraine makes the calls here when Ukraine's ready, then Ukraine may negotiate. But the fact that he, that comment we were taking out of context, and people will say that Rishi Sunak believes that there has to be a negotiation at, so at what point are we going to lean on the Ukrainians to negotiate? And I think that in Kiev, I think it won't be very, they won't welcome the fact that he said it. It's also, it's just not true that all wars end at the negotiating table. It's a line we've heard from the beginning, right from the start. People should read a book occasionally. The Second World War did not end in negotiation. One of yours perhaps. Yes. The First World War did not end in a meaningful negotia...
