The family of a British teenager killed when his motorbike was struck by a car driven by a US diplomats wife have demanded to know whether the UK was told she was an alleged former CIA officer, and if this gave her extra protection from extradition.
Charlotte Charles, the mother of Harry Dunn who died in August in a crash near the Northamptonshire airbase where Anne Sacoolass husband worked as an intelligence officer said the family were furious after hearing of Sacoolass alleged past.
Charles said: How could [the British government] do this to us? We have thrown ourselves into building relationships with the government despite the terrible way they were treating us. We believe in giving people a second chance. But I am livid today and my family are full of anger.
She said the latest reports in the Mail on Sunday about Sacoolass alleged previous status as a CIA operative reminded her of the days just after her sons death when she claimed the government were trying to kick this all under the carpet.
