Information in public interest, say Tories

THE Tories have called for more details to be disclosed about the return to prison of one of James Bulger’s killers, saying it was in the public interest.

Jon Venables was taken back into custody last week for breaching the conditions of his release.

Little is known about the reasons why and ministers have refused further details.

Shadow Commons leader Sir George Young asked Harriet Harman: “Do you agree with me and apparently the Home Secretary that unless there are very good reasons for keeping this information secret, it is in the public interest to know why Jon Venables has been sent back to prison?”
