Daniel Roque Hall Case Covered By BBC

September 14, 2012

It’s so good to see this case getting the wide press coverage it deserves and needs. I’ve followed the case closely since August and fully support the family’s battle for justice.

A mother from north west London has alleged neglect of her disabled son in Wormwood Scrubs prison “almost killed him”.

Anne Hall’s son, Daniel, 30, who has serious health problems, was jailed in July after pleading guilty to trying to smuggle cocaine hidden in his wheelchair through Heathrow Airport.

Within weeks of starting his sentence he was in intensive care with heart failure.

The Ministry of Justice said the allegations would be resolved in the courts, where the case is currently being considered by a High Court judge, but added all prisoners have access to the same level of NHS services as those in the community.

Mrs Hall and Kaleem Naeem, the inmate’s friend, spoke to BBC London’s Nick Beake.

    this a disgraceful case. that any human being can be treated in this way is an outrage. Wormwood Scrubbs declared that they were able to take care of him when they were clearly totally unable to do so. His human rights have been violated and i hope this abuse doesn’t cause his death
