Fears prime suspect in Yvonne Fletcher murder case will NEVER face justice

Fears have arisen that the prime suspect in the Yvonne Fletcher murder case will never face justice as the Home Office secretly bars him from returning to Britain.

Saleh Ibrahim Mabrouk, a Libyan who lived in Reading for 10 years, was told that he was ‘excluded’ from Britain in January 2019, The Sunday Telegraph reports. 

The policewoman was shot dead outside the Libyan embassy in London in 1984.

The decision to bar him from this country comes at the Government said it had no powers to deport Libyan asylum seekers as it could breach their human rights.

Mabrouk is the only person that was ever arrested in connection with WPc Fletcher’s murder.  

He was a senior member of the ‘revolutionary committee’ that ran the Libyan embassy at the time of the murder.

He was expelled from Britain in the aftermath but allowed back in 2000 after Tony Blair restored relations with Libya. 

Mabrouk, who lives in Berkshire after claiming asylum in the UK in 2011, was arrested in 2015 in connection with the murder but was told two years later the case would not go forward.

The decision was made on the grounds of national security.  

John Murray, the police officer who held WPC Fletcher in his arms as she died, wrote to Amber Rudd afterwards asking her to deport Mabrouk as he was planning a private civil case in the High Court. 

Six weeks after Mr Murray started his civil action in 2018, Mabrouk was told by the Government that he was being ‘excluded’ from the UK in a letter from the home secretary, The Telegraph reports. 

The letter said: ‘Your presence here would not be conducive to the public good, due to your suspected involvement in war crimes and crimes against humanity in Libya.’  

Last night Mr Murray, 64, said the decision to bar the Libyan from the UK meant ‘the Home Office has got blood on its hands’.   

In 2017, the Metropolitan Police told the Home Office they believed they had enough evidence to bring someone to court, saying: ‘Our investigation has identified enough material to identify those responsible for WPC Fletcher’s murder if it could be presented to a court.

‘However, the key material has not been made available for use in court in evidential form for reasons of national security.’ 

The Home Office has been contacted for comment.

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. — Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine. Shopping frenzies cleared stores of essential supplies needed everyday by many disabled people, like thermometers, hand wipes, masks, and IV infusion supplies. Accustomed to their needs ...
