Monster who strangled teenager to be deported back to UK free to walk streets

A British man who strangled a woman to death after a night out 18 years ago is due to be deported back to the UK to walk the streets as a free man.

James Duggan was jailed in 2006 of murdering Rebecca Ryle, 19, after meeting her at a pub in Perth, Australia in 2004 when he was a teenager.

Duggan, who emigrated to Australia, had offered to walk Rebecca back to her house, but instead killed her after strangling her for more than three minutes in a park close to her home.
