John Worboys' victims crowdfund for own legal challenge to stop release after Government drops judicial review
Justice Secretary David Gauke said a judicial review did not have a ‘reasonable prospect of success’
www.independent.co.ukI don’t have real-time access in this moment to pull the very latest updates. Based on the most recent reporting I can verify, John Worboys remains a high-profile case with ongoing legal and parole proceedings that have drawn public and media attention, including 2018–2019 judicial actions that kept him in custody and subsequent discussions about parole reviews. If you’d like, I can summarize the key milestones from widely reported coverage up to 2025–2026 and explain what’s been publicly contested, such as judicial reviews and parole board decisions, with citations from reputable sources.
Would you like a concise timeline of Worboys’ parole-related developments and the latest publicly reported status, or a deeper dive with a focus on the legal arguments and victims’ perspectives? If you prefer, I can also search for the very latest articles and provide a brief synthesis with sources.
