Andrew Malkinson, an innocent man who served 17 years in Prison for rape, could be forced to pay the prison service for "bed and board" if he wins compensation. Malkinson's conviction was overturned by appeal court judges, who cited new DNA evidence that implicated another man. Malkinson expressed disgust at the idea of paying the prison service after fighting for his innocence for so long. He described his experience as an "uphill battle" and accused the prison service of lobbying the government to implement this policy. The Ministry of Justice has been contacted for comment.
