When I set up this site in April 2001 I intended it to be a “one-off”, apart from minor updates and any new material that came into my possession relating to the case. I was not to be disappointed because one of the first such documents I obtained was the post mortem (autopsy) report on Clarke Pearce. To my surprise the Coroner released it to Nadine O’Neill on a written request. I also purchased a transcript of the 1995 Court of Appeal judgment. The site was updated in October 2001, and I sat back and admired it with great satisfaction – a job well done! – giving it the occasional plug on Usenet. Then came the bad news (though not for Ram).
In June 2002, Ram was freed following the ruling in
the Stafford case. As I learned of
this ruling and Ram’s imminent release I was in the process of putting out a new pamphlet:
The Tainted Silk Of Michael Mansfield QC. I brought the publication of this pamphlet
forward, and along with Nadine O’Neill and her family, I sat back and watched as Ram gave a carefully stage managed press
conference on his release.
I had spoken to Mrs O’Neill on the afternoon of Wednesday,
June 12, 2002. She told me that she had been informed Ram was to be released
the following Friday; she hadn’t yet told the rest of her family. As things turned out
he wasn’t released until after the weekend.
At or about this point, Nadine O’Neill made a prediction: Ram would re-offend,
and if I recall, she said she would give him a year before he was back inside. She was spot on. After
less than a year at liberty, Ram was recalled to prison following allegations of assault and
criminal damage. All the authorities have to do now, is find him!
I have written a number of letters to the media about Ram’s case over the past few years, the vast
majority of them have been ignored, so I was pleasantly surprised (astounded frankly) when the left wing
newspaper/magazine Tribune published one. I am not a regular reader of Tribune, and learned of its publication purely by accident.
A large format scan of the letter is published here, as is a regular scan of a reply, by Duncan Mayhew, who apparently knows – or knows of – me, although I have never heard of him. Both letters contain minor errors; my postcode has been given as SE21 instead of SE26.
Mayhew’s letter refers to “a clear code of homicide” – obviously the paper’s error – and an error (or lie) that Mayhew has endorsed accidentally. No, Duncan, Alexander Baron
IS my real name.
I was less surprised, though pleasantly so, that my letter to the on-line Indian newspaper of the same name was published in full. (All letters to the media are vulnerable to editing; here I most definitely did not refer to the paper’s correspondent as “Ms” Sharma).
After the October 2001 update, I had definitely not intended to update this site again, but when Ram’s release was announced I planned to give him a year of liberty then update it. Although I continued to collect, and occasionally to research material for the site, this idea was gradually abandoned, until January 2004
when I decided on impulse to add The Tainted Silk Of Michael Mansfield QC to the on-line collection. When this pamphlet had been posted – on January 22 – I phoned Nadine O’Neill and told
her. She said she had recently been informed of a BBC report to the effect that Ram had lost his compensation, but that she could find no mention of this, and believed the story had been spiked. Like me she wondered what compensation?
If I recall correctly, just after Christmas 2003, I spoke to the (now former) Legal Executive of the POW Trust, an organisation I had spent some time working for. He told me that he had recently seen a case
named Ram listed on the Court Service website. Could that be my man? I said I doubted it. Shortly after that
it transpired that this was indeed the man himself. On January 12, 2004, a small article
was posted to the website of The Scotsman newspaper. The case had been
heard that day, and apparently a Press Association court reporter had been about,
and had seen fit to file a fairly detailed report of the hearing. The Scotsman had seen fit to publish it.
After speaking to Mrs O’Neill, I ran a search on Google News and found this article. When I told her, she was extremely angry
that she and her family had not been informed of Ram’s being unlawfully at large. Nadine and her husband had witnessed the murder, and both had given evidence against Ram at his
trial.
Her Probation Service contact was not happy either; clearly it was disgraceful that Nadine O’Neill and she herself had learned of this only through the media, and indirectly and by chance at that.
While surfing the web on March 9, 2003, I made a discovery that would have
shocked me profoudly if I had not become shock-proof over some of the outrageous things
the academic world has done over the years. The imbeciles at Sheffield University had instigated
a Satpal Ram Learning Centre. What would be taught here I wondered: the technique of lying incessantly
and convincingly? Ram was also named as the Union’s Honorary President, and a
biography of the great man was to be displayed in the room. This resolution was passed August 2, 2002,
shortly after Ram’s release, and, concidentally, my 46th birthday.
When I told Nadine O’Neill about Ram’s going awol, she couldn’t
resist gloating that the man who had murdered her brother before her very eyes had
finally revealed himself to the entire world in his true colours. Now even the
most braindead and dedicated of “anti-racists” must surely give up the ghost
on this worthless cause.
When I checked Ram’s appleonline website on January 29, 2004, I received
an error message, but this had been set up to campaign for his release, so was probably
taken down shortly after his parole.
It was about this time that I decided I must update the site within the next few weeks, so
I threw myself into the task with vigour, and come the beginning of March, the
further update was all but complete. Apart from any minor bibliographical entries
I have no intention at present of updating it further, but none of us can predict
the future in any meaningful sense, and if Ram is captured, or something else
happens...who knows? Whatever, this website will stand as a permanent memorial
to the perfidy of Satpal Ram, to a young life cut tragically short, and as an object
lesson to the folly of “anti-racism”, a religion that ruthlessly subjugates
truth, reason, common sense, and in Ram’s case common decency, to a morally bankrupt
ideology.
On March 4, 2004 I spoke briefly with Stephen Linehan, Ram’s junior
counsel at his murder trial, who was extremely surprised when I told him Ram had been granted Legal Aid while unlawfully at large.
He was unwilling to say anything about the original case, but he did give me some
useful information concerning the late Douglas Draycott. The radio programme over which
Draycott sued the BBC, was broadcast the morning of Ram’s second appeal. I checked the
Radio Times but the entry for Today contained no reference
to the case, as was to be expected as this is a news programme. I have to date found only one published reference to this
libel action, but the minutae of Draycott v BBC are not important, what is
important is that he brought the action, and that it was settled to his satisfaction.
This is yet another nail in the coffin of the Ram lie-machine, which claims that Draycott admitted that he had bungled Ram’s case.
After speaking with Mr Linehan there was not much more I could do
other than to update the site. Nadine O’Neill has written to Birmingham CPS requesting
copies of Ram’s case papers, but in the unlikely event of any of them being released
they will take considerable time to process. Ironically, although Ram’s cult status now lies
in ruins, he has achieved a lasting notoriety in an entirely unanticipated, and for him unwanted,
manner. His failed and quite spurious 1995 appeal has found its way into English case law, most notably
it has been cited in the (successful) appeal of farmer Tony Martin, who like Ram killed in cold blood, but unlike Ram won overwhelming public support, primarily because when he shot burglar
Fred Barras he was defending his own property. And sober!
This site has been thoroughly tested with both Internet Explorer
and Netscape. As far as I have been able to ascertain, there are no technical faults
either with the code or the links. While all internal links should work,
I have no control over external links, and the transient nature of much of the
Internet means it is impossible for myself or indeed for any webmaster to
guarantee that a particular link that works today will work tomorrow.
All the information on this site, particularly quotes from books, magazines and newspapers, has been checked, double checked, and in many cases checked repeatedly. Having said that, even I have been known to make mistakes! Any errors of fact or interpretation on this site are entirely my own – unless stated implicitly to the contrary. If any such errors are brought to my attention I will, as ever, willingly correct the same.
