A man who served 17 years in prison has had his rape conviction overturned after fresh DNA evidence emerged linking another suspect to the crime.

Andrew Malkinson was jailed for life with a minimum term of seven years after he was found guilty of the 2003 attack on a woman in Greater Manchester, but stayed in jail for another decade because he maintained his innocence.

Mr Malkinson spoke after the overturning of his conviction outside of the Royal Court of Justice in London where he has called for Great Manchester Police to be held accountable.
