Exclusive: Cases of Basil Peterkin and Saliah Mehmet, who have since died, are latest referrals relating to DS Derek Ridgewell
Two men who died with convictions based on evidence from a disgraced police officer with a history of racism and corruption have had their cases referred back to the courts.
The referral of the cases of Saliah Mehmet and Basil Peterkin by the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) comes after nine other convictions relating to British Transport Police (BTP) officer DS Derek Ridgewell were quashed.
