Caged Charlie Bronson hopes to be home for Christmas as he bids to be Britain’s first public parole hearing, the Daily Mirror can reveal.
The 69-year-old, who has spent most of his life behind bars in the UK, claims his efforts to be released have been hit by delays lasting three years.
Bronson was first jailed for armed robbery in 1974 but convictions for violence and blackmail have kept him locked up.
