Wrongly jailed Malkinson says demand for legal fees is 'penny-pinching'
Andrew Malkinson, who served over 17 years in prison wrongfully convicted of a 2003 Greater Manchester rape before his conviction was quashed in 2023, has slammed the UK government’s demand that he deduct legal and expert fees from his miscarriage of justice compensation, calling it "penny-pinching" and urging Justice Secretary David Lammy to resolve the issue immediately. Malkinson is awaiting the results of a judge-led inquiry into his wrongful conviction, while Greater Manchester Police’s handling of the case is under investigation by the Independent Office for Police Conduct, and the real attacker, Paul Quinn, is due to be sentenced on June 5.
