Dad demands answers over Stephen killer hearing delay

David Norris's case tomorrow and Thursday was adjourned when unspecified information was not made available to the case panel.

A lawyer for Stephen's father Neville said that the Government had failed to provide the details.

Guy Mitchell, from Hodge Jones and Allen, said: “Dr Lawrence is understandably very frustrated by this last-minute delay.”

Norris was jailed for life with a minimum 14 years after he was convicted in 2011 with Gary Dobson of the racist murder of Stephen, 18, in 1993.
