Hospital horror probe over hundreds of drugs deaths - after 'police told 25 years ago'

A daughter who suspected her mother died because of drugs she was given at a hospital in the 1990s has slammed the length of time it took police to launch a probe.

Gillian Mackenzie, 88, raised the alarm after Gladys Richards died at Gosport War Memorial Hospital in 1998 and is among many bereaved relatives who fear they will never see justice done.

She said: “It’s been 25 years since I went to the police with my concerns about the hospital, I was the first one to go to them. I don’t think I shall even be alive when this goes to court.”
