- Kiran Kaur, who was jailed for three years for removing the knife used by her son Vickrum Digwa to murder student Henry Nowak , could be released early under the Government 's prison release scheme.
- The prospective early release around the anniversary of 18-year-old Mr Nowak's death has been described as a significant blow to his family.
- Hampshire Police and Crime Commissioner Donna Jones criticised the move, stating that prison overcrowding affects adult male facilities rather than female prisons.
