Episode notes

In this week’s episode, Joshi and Jack discuss the case of Andrew Malkinson, who was convicted of a crime he didn’t commit, and wrongly imprisoned for 17 years. Questions have been raised about Greater Manchester Police’s investigation into Malkinson, and whether the force withholding, and in some cases destroying, pieces of evidence contributed to an innocent man going to jail. Jack also talks about his latest weekend read on the Tyshkul family, who he first met last March when they arrived in Manchester as refugees of the war in Ukraine. What have the last 18 months like as a refugee in Manchester? And what are the next steps the family might take?
