Factual: Crime & Justice: True Crime

Multi-award-winning series about a young hero and the battle to keep him safe.

The multi-award-winning story of Abraham Badru: a 15-year-old boy who became celebrated as a hero, but lived his life in fear. And the battle to protect him.

In Hackney, 2007, 15-year-old Abraham saves a stranger from a brutal attack. That split-second decision and act of astonishing bravery changes his life forever.

Journalist Sam Holder has been following Abraham's story for years. Together with Abraham's friends and family, they retrace how this young boy finds himself in fear of his own life. 

This multi-award-winning series explores the protections in place for witnesses of violent crimes, the obligations for witnesses to give evidence in court, and what can be done if someone feels their life is at risk.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
