HC Deb 26 October 1971 vol 823 c307W
Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Attorney-General in how many other instances than the case of Oleg Lyalin since 1945 charges have been withdrawn against a defendant in a court in Great Britain because no guarantee of his safety could be given.

The Attorney-General

I know of no other cases in which the circumstances attending the case of Mr. Oleg Lyalin were present. In a considerable number of cases charges have been withdrawn because of the state of health of the defendant.
