Bronson has spent nearly 50 years in prison after his original seven-year sentence was extended many times because of his violent attacks on prison staff and fellow inmates. A former detective and a consultant psychiatrist have conflicting views as to whether he should now be released.
His original seven-year sentence has been extended many times because of his violent attacks on prison staff and fellow inmates.
His lawyers will argue that it's eight years since his last conviction and four years since an internal prison adjudication for violence. His solicitor Dean Kingham said Bronson, who now calls himself Charles Salvador, is deliberately being prevented from making progress towards a less restricted regime.
Bronson's family and supporters say it is unfair to keep him in jail when prisoners convicted of more serious offences have been granted parole., which sometimes sell for several thousand pounds.
