‘Once again the system bends over backwards for a child killer’: Fury of victims’ families as Southport killer ‘manipulates’ his way out of prison and into Broadmoor

The families of three girls murdered by Axel Rudakubana have accused the Southport killer of trying to ‘manipulate the system’ after he was transferred to Broadmoor.

The 19-year-old was moved to the secure psychiatric hospital from Belmarsh prison earlier this week after it was decided that he could not be managed safely in a prison environment.

Lawyer Chris Walker, of Bond Turner, who is representing the Southport families, said: ‘The three families we represent have been made aware of this development in the last 48 hours and it is safe to say that whilst this news would devastate them at any time, the fact that this has occurred as we approach the second anniversary in our view is another move by AR who would appear to be attempting, once again, to manipulate the system.
