Nottingham Attacks: Families to meet PM in statutory inquiry push

Ms Webber said: “It has been a long and traumatic battle for the families.

“But we are glad to finally have the opportunity to meet with the PM and senior cabinet ministers, in what we hope will be the moment we get confirmation that the already promised public inquiry is going to be statutory.

“Meaning that it has the teeth it needs to ensure all organisations, institutions and individuals involved in the care, treatment of Calocane, and the investigation and prosecution of his crimes, are finally made to tell the truth.

“It has to be a watershed moment in this country to hold those who fail to account, address miscarriages of justice and, crucially, bring in changes needed to keep the public safe and make sure this can never happen again.”

Mr Seiger said the inquiry must be a judge-led statutory inquiry where witnesses are compelled to attend to give evidence.

“The families will not stop in the name of their loved ones until a light is shone on exactly what went wrong at every step of the way that led to the killings in Nottingham, that those responsible are held fully to account, and that steps are taken once and for all to ensure atrocities like this never happen again,” he added.
