Gangster Kenneth Noye was spared prison when a “judge was misled” by a senior police officer suspected of corruption, a secret Met report reveals.
Ex-Commander Ray Adams made representations in support of Noye in 1977 when Noye was convicted of bribing a policeman.
Channel 4 reveals the 1988 report, codenamed Operation Russell, says Croydon crown court in South London was misled by Adams, who falsely said Noye was an informant.
