Loyalist killer Torrens Knight released from jail
The loyalist killer Torrens Knight has been released from prison.
Knight, a convicted mass murderer was sent back to jail last year for attacking two sisters in Coleraine and had his early release licence suspended.
In 1994 Torrens Knight was convicted of 12 killings including the Greysteel massacre and the murder of four Catholic workmen in Castlerock.
Knight was released early on licence in 2000 but was returned to prison after being found guilty of attacking sisters Rosemary Sutherland and Caroline McNicholl in May 2008.
However, he was recently released again following a decision by the Sentence Review Commission.
SDLP East Londonderry MLA John Dallat claims the victims were not informed of his release and said Knight has been treated with “kid gloves”.
A spokesman for the Commission said “it doesn’t comment on individual cases.”
