Beyond Reasonable Doubt The Broadwater Farm riots and the murder of PC
Keith Blakelock in October 1985 led to a ten-week trial and life sentence for three young men - Engin Raghip , Mark Braithwaite and Winston Silcott. All three convictions were based on uncorroborated confessions obtained by the police in the absence of solicitors. There were no witnesses and no forensic evidence.
Charles Wheeler examines the murder investigation and the ensuing trial, and questions whether any of the three should have been convicted.
