Unsolved: An Alibi for Omar?

Reporter Bronagh Munro uncovers new evidence that casts doubt on the conviction of a man who has spent 19 years in prison for murder. Omar Benguit was jailed for killing 26-year-old Korean student Jong-Ok Shin as she walked home from a night out in Bournemouth in 2002. The only evidence to place him at the murder scene came from a heroin addict with a history of making false allegations against innocent people.
