I’ll never forgive police who destroyed my life, says Conlon

GUILDFORD Four innocent Gerard Conlon has said he will never forgive British policemen who conspired to convict him for the 1974 pub bombings.

Mr Conlon admitted he began long-term therapy to help him recover from the 15 years he spent in prison for a crime he did not commit. In October 1989, he and three other people had their convictions quashed when serious flaws were found in the investigation by Surrey police.

Yesterday, Mr Conlon said he will never forget the torment he suffered.
