I am not suggesting for one moment that this highly controversial case and the current situation cannot be discussed. "Justice is not a cloistered virtue", etc.
Novel appealing against conviction having pleaded guilty. Coercion, torture, etc may be valid reasons but I wonder what it might be in this case.
