Straw 'would resist' Huntley damages claim

Straw 'would resist' Huntley damages claim

The Justice Secretary has said any attempt by Soham murderer Ian Huntley to claim compensation for a prison attack will be "vigorously resisted".





The 36-year-old's throat was reportedly slashed by another inmate at Frankland jail in County Durham on Sunday.

Jack Straw was responding to a Commons question from a Conservative MP, who quoted a report suggesting the killer could claim up to £20,000.
