A convicted killer, Jake Fahri, who allegedly released rap music about his murder of a teenager, has been recommended for transfer to an open prison by the Parole Board.

Fahri, then 19, received a life sentence in 2009 with a minimum term of 14 years for the killing of 16-year-old schoolboy Jimmy Mizen.
