CONVICTION OF GEORGE KELLY

Tabled by Mr Adrian Sanders (Liberal Democrat) 11 signatures

The motion

That this House notes the quashing after the longest campaign in English legal history lasting 53 years of the conviction of George Kelly who was wrongly convicted of murder in the Cameo Cinema murder case and who was executed in 1950; recognises the efforts of those, including relatives who have died, who sought to overturn the conviction; and calls for a public inquiry into the gross miscarriage of justice.
