With regard to the release of Harry Roberts from prison, the PMOS said that the Prime Minister understood the public’s strength of feeling that this case had provoked and the widely held view that the murder of police men and women who are on the front line protecting the public is a particularly heinous act. The PMOS added that the decision on his release was one made by the independent Parole Board.
