A man who has served almost 40 years in prison in the UK for murder is set to be freed after the Court of Appeal quashed his conviction.
Peter Sullivan, 68, who has always protested his innocence, was found guilty in 1987 of the murder of Diane Sindall who was killed on her way home from work in Merseyside.
His case was referred to the Court of Appeal after fresh DNA evidence came to light casting doubt on his involvement.
It is believed to be the longest-running miscarriage of justice affecting a living prisoner in UK history.
