The M25 Three, Raphael Rowe, Michael Davis and Randolph Johnson, have lost their appeal to overturn their life sentences for murder, robbery and violence and firearms offences. Lord Justice Watkins upheld the convictions despite a lack of forensic evidence against the men and despite the fact that witnesses identified two white men and a black man as being responsible. All three of the convicted men are Black. (see Statewatch 2:6)
The three men will now appeal to the Lords and their lawyers plan to refer the case to the European Court following the non- disclosure of information at the Appeal.
