Description

Press interview with Mark Braithwaite and Engin Raghip, following their freeing on bail, at the Law Courts in London. The two men were serving life sentences for murdering PC Keith Blakelock during the 1985 Broadwater Farm riots in Tottenham, North London. They now seem likely to have their sentences overturned by the Court of Appeal in London. Winston Silcott’s sentence has been quashed but he stays in jail because he’s serving life for another murder. Broadcast on LBC Newstalk.
