Ellis defence tries for legal aid

Fresh doubts about interviews of children in the 1993 Peter Ellis sex abuse case will be used to try to secure legal aid funding for his appeal to the Privy Council.

Ellis' lawyer, Judith Ablett Kerr, QC, wants a meeting with new Justice Minister Annette King in her bid to take his case to the Law Lords in London.
