The Sunday Times reports on Reprieve client Ali Kololo, wrongly accused and sentenced to death in Kenya for the murder of David Tebbutt. His wife Judith Tebbutt is calling for Ali Kololo’s release.

Maya Foa, director of Reprieve, said: “Ali Kololo has spent a decade in prison for a crime he should never have been convicted of, following a seriously flawed investigation and a trial that did not meet basic standards of fairness. Although this miscarriage of justice can be remedied, nothing can repair the damage done to him and his family.”
