The parents of a 24-year-old woman who was murdered by her jealous and obsessed ex-partner have welcomed the launch of an independent review of stalking laws as a “major step forward”.
The prosecutor in the case of Alice Ruggles, who was killed by her soldier ex-boyfriend in October 2016, has been appointed to lead the review which the Government said is aimed at ensuring stalking victims get the protection they need and more offenders are brought to justice.
