In September 2023 the IOPC opened an investigation into the wrongful conviction of Andrew Malkinson for rape. Nearly 3 years later nobody has been interviewed.

Seems the excuse is that they "paused" the investigation until after the conviction of the actual rapist.

After many years in jail for a crime he didn't commit surely Andrew Malkinson deserves a fast investigation of any police failures in his case or is delaying the investigation for years reasonable.

Always how it is. Criminal investigation is dealt with first. Then IOPC witch hunt.
