Release of Lynette White’s Murderer to Proceed Despite Appeals
The Ministry of Justice has confirmed that the release of Jeffrey Gafoor, the man convicted of murdering Lynette White in 1988, will not be reconsidered. Gafoor, who was granted parole after 21 years in prison, stabbed White over 50 times in Cardiff. Despite appeals from John Actie, one of the falsely accused in this high-profile miscarriage of justice, the decision stands as no legal grounds were found for intervention. Gafoor’s release comes after extensive legal proceedings, highlighting the complexities surrounding the case and public sentiments regarding justice.
