Andrew Malkinson says wrongful rape conviction inquiry should be statutory

Exclusive: Malkinson was convicted with no DNA evidence and says police must be compelled to disclose why

Andrew Malkinson believes an inquiry into how he was wrongfully convicted of rape must be made statutory to ensure Greater Manchester police do not hide evidence.

Malkinson, 57, was convicted of raping a stranger in 2003 in Greater Manchester, despite no DNA evidence. The court of appeal overturned his conviction in July after forensic testing linked another man to the crime.
