Andrew Malkinson calls for CCRC chief executive to resign

Exclusive: Demand by victim of wrongful conviction comes after role Karen Kneller played in handling his case revealed

Andrew Malkinson has called for the chief executive of the Criminal Cases Review Commission to resign as the key role she held during the organisation’s most problematic handling of his case was revealed.

Karen Kneller was director of casework when the miscarriages of justice body did “very poor” work on Malkinson’s first application to overturn his conviction for a 2003 stranger rape he did not commit.
