Jailed killer cleared for release
Kenneth Noye THE detective who nailed road-rage murderer Kenneth Noye has said he should never be freed as he was yesterday cleared for release.
Nick Biddiss believes the gangster who also stabbed a police officer to death, has an illicit fortune squirrelled away and will probably return to crime.
Noye was yesterday told he can go free having served less than 20 years for murdering 21-year-old Stephen Cameron in a road rage attack near the M25 in Swanley, Kent, in 1996. Mr Biddis, a former detective superintendent, said: “I don’t think he should ever come out.
“I suspect he’s access to money you and I could only dream of but it will be untraceable.”
Mr Biddiss was in charge of the Kent Police probe that hunted Noye down in Spain. His victim’s fiancee lives with a new identity, after identifying Noye.
Stephen’s dad Ken, 72, whose wife Toni died in 2016, said: “I’m devastated.” Noye, who is 72 tomorrow, allegedly salted away £5million he and Hatton Garden mastermind Brian Reader raised laundering the proceeds of the
1983 Brink’s-Mat
HIS VICTIM Stephen Cameron heist. Noye repaid £3million to the authorities in 1994. In 1985 he stabbed police officer John Fordham 10 times. He was cleared of murder and manslaughter, on the grounds of self-defence. The Ministry of Justice said Noye would be released “subject to strict conditions” but acknowledged it “will be distressing for the family. of Stephen Cameron”.
