IOPC to examine whether officers may have committed offences over case of man imprisoned after wrongful rape conviction
The police watchdog has announced an investigation into Greater Manchester police’s handling of Andrew Malkinson’s case.
Malkinson was exonerated in July of a rape for which he wrongly spent 17 years in prison after a DNA breakthrough. The court of appeal also ruled that disclosure failures by Greater Manchester police (GMP) rendered his conviction unsafe.
