James Bulger killer Jon Venables will not be identified as dad loses High Court case.
A global order made in 2001, has allowed Venables to live in anonymity since his release from a life-sentence for the kidnap, torture and murder of the two-year-old in February 1993.
Lawyers for Ralph and Jimmy said they, as victims, should be able to scrutinise his handling by the authorities after he was caught twice for possession of child abuse images. However, in a ruling on Monday, the judge refused to change the terms of the order in the way requested by the Bulgers.CCTV footage shows the abduction James Bulger from the Bootle Strand shopping mall
They were both granted lifelong anonymity by a High Court judge and have lived under new identities since their release from custody.The court order was amended in relation to Venables after he was convicted of further offences in 2010 and February last year.
