One Year On, Parents Want Saskia's Law To Stop Another London Bridge

Victim’s family in call for event security shake-up

- Alan Selby

The family of London Bridge terror victim Saskia Jones are calling for a new law in their daughter’s memory to beef up security at public events.

They hope “Saskia’s Law” will prevent “another family being torn apart in similar circumstances”.

It comes a year after the 23-year old was stabbed to death by convicted terrorist Usman Khan at a prisoner rehabilitation event she helped stage at Fishmongers’ Hall.

Jack Merritt, 25, a course coordinator for the University of Cambridge programme Learning Together, was also killed by Khan.

Michelle Jones, Saskia’s mother, has paid tribute to the emotional support the family have received in the past year and hopes her daughter’s legacy will live on.
