Police apologise over child murders probe

from the article on BBC News:

Scotland's largest police force has apologised for a series of failures in its handling of a double child murder.

Strathclyde Police said that it was "extremely sorry" for the way Giselle Ross was treated after the deaths of her sons, Paul, six, and Jay, two.

The children were murdered by their father Ashok Kalyanjee at a beauty spot in the Campsie Fells in May 2008.

Crime victims get right to apology

from Bob Roberts' article in the Mirror:

Criminals could be ordered to say sorry to victims in face-toface meetings as part of their sentence.

Gordon Brown wants those who have had offences committed against them to be given the right to a personal apology.

Criminals would also have to explain why they broke the law and offer some way of putting it right. The plans to shame them would be on top of any prison or community sentence handed out.
