From the Archers to Achbold - week ending 24/04/16
So finally we begin to hear the accounts from the main protagonists. Helen has her first meeting with Anna Tregorran. Her account so far describes her actions as intended to protect her 5 year old son Henry. Only those possessing a saint like disposition could have restrained themselves from shouting at the radio as Rob gave his initial account to DS Madeley. His account lays the foundations for undermining Helen in respect of her mental health and on-going risk to Henry (which will also act to ensure Helen’s contact with Henry is curtailed).

Mutual Recognition, Mutual Trust? Detention conditions and deferring an EAW
Prison conditions in other member states often fall well short of required standards, particularly in the context of worsening economic conditions. An eagerly awaited decision was made last week, 5 April, by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) which confirmed that the execution of a European arrest warrant (EAW) must be deferred if there is a real risk of inhuman or degrading treatment because of the conditions of detention of the person concerned in the Member State where the warrant was issued.
