Controversial parole proceedings in Gibraltar finally determined

The Supreme Court has now  directed that Isaac Marrache can be released on parole. The Court accepted that he poses no substantial risk of re-offending. This comes after a  previous declaration by the Court that the initial order of the Minister of Justice to release Mr Marrache was a nullity.  Leave to appeal on the point of law of whether the Court was right to intervene in the first place has also been granted. Danny Friedman QC represented Marrache.
