Oliver Campbell was convicted of the murder of London shopkeeper Baldev Hoondle in 1991.

Mr Campbell, who has learning disabilities, says he felt under pressure at the time to confess to the murder.

He was released from prison after serving 11 years in 2002 and is now living in sheltered accommodation.

He is still a convicted murderer, a label he says is ruining his life.

Newsnight’s Richard Watson reports.
