Greville Ewan Janner, Baron Janner of Braunstone, QC (11 July 1928 – 19 December 2015) was a British politician, barrister and writer. He was chosen at the last moment before an election to follow his father as a Labour MP, and went on to serve 27 years (from 1970 to 1997) in the House of Commons and then as a member of the House of Lords until ill health intervened. Never a frontbencher, Janner was particularly known for his work on Select Committees and he chaired the Select Committee on Employment for a time.[2] He was associated with a number of Jewish organisations including the Board of Deputies of British Jews, of which he was chairman from 1978 to 1984, and was later prominent in the field of education about the Holocaust.

Allegations that he had sexually abused children were made in 1991 but Janner denied them and no action was taken. The allegations re-emerged shortly before Janner's death, and although the Crown Prosecution Service considered that there was enough evidence to merit prosecution,[3] they decided that a prosecution would not be in the public interest as Janner had been diagnosed as suffering from dementia.[4] This decision was overturned on review,[5] although Janner was ruled unfit to plead. At the time of his death a trial of the facts was scheduled for 11 April 2016,[6] which will not take place;[7] six complainants intend to sue his estate.[8] In a statement issued after the CPS decision in April 2015, his family said that Janner was innocent.[9]

Early life

Janner's father Barnett Janner, a Liberal and then Labour MP

Janner was born in Cardiff, Wales, to Lithuanian Jewish (Litvak) parents, the son of Barnett Janner and Elsie Sybil, née Cohen.[10] Janner and Ruth, his sister (later Lady Morris of Kenwood), were evacuated to Canada at the age of 11, because their parents anticipated a Nazi invasion of Britain.[11][12] While in Canada, living with family friends, he attended Bishop's College School, Lennoxville, Quebec. Janner returned to Britain in 1942 and attended St Paul's School, London.[12]

At the age of 18, he served in occupied Germany working for the War Crimes Investigation Unit of the British Army of the Rhine for 18 months. Janner investigated cases of British airmen who were shot at Stalag Luft III, the prisoner of war camp.[13] At weekends, he worked with Holocaust survivors at Bergen-Belsen.[14] The army unit was closed in 1948 to Janner's dismay.[15]

Later, Janner read Law at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, where he was President of the Cambridge Union Society, in 1952, and chairman of the university Labour Club. He became the international secretary of the National Association of Labour Students and president of Trinity Hall Athletic Club.[16]Janner was able to attend Harvard Law School through both the Fulbright and Smith-Mundt Act awards.[17]

After training, via a Harmsworth Scholarship at Middle Temple,[12] he became a barrister in 1954 and was appointed a Queen's Counsel (QC) in 1971.[17]

Public career

House of Commons and Jewish causes

Having unsuccessfully fought Wimbledon in the 1955 General Election, Janner represented Leicester North West from the 1970 general election until February 1974, succeeding his father, Sir Barnett Janner, a former Chairman of the Zionist Federation of Great Britain. His father announced his retirement from the Commons two days before candidate nominations closed in 1970, and his son was quickly chosen in his place. Posters imploring electors to "Vote Janner" had already been printed, and thus did not need to be scrapped.[12]

The younger Janner retained the reformed Leicester West from 1974 until his retirement at the 1997 general election.[17][18] Janner chaired the Select Committee on Employment from 1994 to 1996.[19] He lost this position because Conservative members of the committee acted against him. A potential conflict of interest existed as he was an advisor to firms the committee might investigate.[2] He was succeeded in Leicester West by Patricia Hewitt.

Janner was president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, the main representative body of the British Jewish community, from 1978 to 1984,[18] and was a prominent campaigner in the efforts to gain reparations for victims of the Holocaust.[17] In parliament, and outside, he was involved in campaigning for the War Crimes Act 1991, lobbying the Thatcher government to allow legislation to bring those responsible for Nazi atrocities (and now resident in Britain) to justice.[16] He was also a vice-president of the World Jewish Congress[17] until 2009 and of the Jewish Leadership Council until 2015.[19][20] He was president of the National Council for Soviet Jewry (1979–85) and the Commonwealth Jewish Council.[12][19]

In 1988 he co-founded the Holocaust Educational Trust with Merlyn Rees, a body which successfully persuaded the British government to add teaching about the Holocaust to the National Curriculum in 1988.[21] Janner stood down from the role in 2012. The Lord Janner Scholarship provides funding for ten schools to take part in the Trust's educational programmes each year.[22]

Janner sought to foster good relations between different faiths and religions and wrote about this issue in his book One Hand Alone Cannot Clap. He co-founded (along with Prince Hassan of Jordan) the Coexistence Trust, a charity to combat Islamophobia and antisemitism.

House of Lords

Janner was created a life peer as Baron Janner of Braunstone, of Leicester in the County of Leicestershire in 1997.[23] He was President and an Officer of the All-Party Parliamentary Group against Anti-Semitism.[24][25]

In 2006, Janner was struck by Lord Bramall, a former head of the Armed Forces, during a heated row over the Middle East.[26] The incident occurred during the 2006 Lebanon War, the two men had disagreed in the House of Lords chamber after Bramall had made comments Janner considered too critical of Israel.[11] Janner was hit in one of the rooms close to the chamber. Janner later sought the advice of fellow peers about how and whether to make a formal complaint against Lord Bramall, before deciding to accept an apology.[27]

Janner continued to attend the House of Lords until December 2013. He was on leave of absence from the House of Lords from 13 October 2014.[28][9]

Other

Janner wrote a number of books on public speaking and business communication, including On Presentation. In addition, he wrote extensively under the pen-name Ewan Mitchell. He was a former member of the Magic Circle and the International Brotherhood of Magicians.[29]

Personal life

In 1955, Janner married Myra Louise Sheink, who was originally from Australia, and the niece of Sir Israel Brodie, the former Chief Rabbi of Great Britain and the Commonwealth. The couple had three children; two daughters and a son.[12][30][31] Myra Sheink died in 1996.[18]

Lord Janner's younger daughter is Rabbi Laura Janner-Klausner, who was appointed National Movement rabbi for the Movement for Reform Judaism in 2011.[30][31][32] She is married to a brother of the Israeli writer Amos Oz.[33] Marion Janner, his other daughter, was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for services to mental health in 2010.[34] Daniel, his son, is a barrister and QC.[35][36]

Health and death

In 2009, Janner was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Its advancing severity meant that by 2015 he required round-the-clock care for his dementia.[1][4] At a court hearing in August 2015, a medical specialist acting as a witness for the defence said that Janner was experiencing the early stages of Parkinson's disease.[37] Janner died on 19 December 2015 from complications of Alzheimer's disease, aged 87.[38]

Child sexual abuse allegations

Statements to the Commons in December 1991

In 1991, the director of a children's home in Leicestershire, Frank Beck, was convicted of child abuse and sentenced to five life terms. During the trial, Janner was accused by Beck of having abused a child and a witness claimed to have been one of Janner's victims while he was in care.[39][40] Janner was unable to comment publicly until after the trial because it would have been in contempt of court.[41][42]

Janner received cross-party support in the House of Commons after Beck's conviction. In a Commons statement, delivered on 2 December, he said there was "not a shred of truth" in the claims which had been made against him.[39][43] In a debate on 3 December on the issue of contempt of court and third-parties being potentially defamed in court cases, Janner said he had received a letter from Beck's former cellmate who had written that Beck was intent on implicating Janner as being responsible for criminal acts after the MP had slighted him by refusing to provide a job reference and had "enlisted" the witness, Paul Winston, in an attempt to "frame" Janner.[42]

Earlier police investigations and CPS decisions

Janner was interviewed by the police in 1991, when the prosecution case against Beck was being prepared. In the first of three previous investigations which did not lead to a prosecution, no charges were brought against the MP because of "insufficient evidence", although the CPS said in 2015 that Janner should have been tried.[4] The 1991 interview was the only time Janner was interviewed by the police. Accompanied by his solicitor, Janner has been reported as having replied "no comment" to the questions put to him.[44] Janner and his solicitor, Sir David Napley, were in contact with the barrister George Carman QC in anticipation of a defence brief needing to be prepared if Janner was put on trial.[45] Carman and Napley were surprised no charges were brought against him because of the weight of evidence, according to Dominic Carman, the barrister's son.[46][47]

Further police investigations took place in 2002 and 2006; documents relating to Janner were not passed to the Crown Prosecution Service after the 2002 investigation.[4] The former Director of Public Prosecutions, Lord Macdonald, told The Guardian in April 2015 that the penultimate CPS decision not to prosecute Janner in 2007 was actually made by officials in Leicestershire who did not contact head office in London about the case.[48]

In September 2014, The Times reported that Mike Creedon, currently the Chief Constable of Derbyshire Constabulary, claimed that in 1989, whilst he was serving as a Detective Sergeant, senior police chiefs severely limited his enquiries into paedophilia allegations against Janner, despite "credible evidence" that warranted further investigation.[49]

Fourth investigation and original CPS decision

In 2013 and early 2014, Leicestershire Police searched Janner's home in north London and his offices in the House of Lords in connection with an enquiry linked to historical child abuse allegations. Janner insisted on his innocence.[26][39][50] A file of evidence against Janner was sent to the Crown Prosecution Service, but he was not interviewed by the police.[4][51]

On 16 April 2015, the Crown Prosecution Service issued a statement indicating that they would not charge Janner owing to his poor health.[1] During Leicestershire Police's Operation Enamel more than 20 men were interviewed who claimed Janner had abused them before they were adults.[52] The Crown Prosecution Service stated that the case met their evidential test for prosecution and they would have otherwise have prosecuted on 22 counts of indecent assaults and buggery, against nine persons which are alleged to have occurred between 1969 and 1988.[4]

They decided that it failed the public interest test, as Janner was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2009 and the associated dementia had progressed to a point where he could not engage with the court process, and his evidence could not be relied upon. This meant that a court case could not proceed.[1][4] Four specialist medical practitioners, two acting for the prosecution and police and two for the defence, have confirmed the severity of Janner's dementia.[53] Just over a week later, it emerged that although the four doctors agreed Janner had severe dementia they were not unanimous on the six points listed in the CPS statement. Only one was asked if Janner could be faking the condition, a suggestion which was categorically dismissed.[54]

Alison Saunders, the Director of Public Prosecutions, stated that the earlier decisions made by police and the CPS not to prosecute were wrong.[4][55] A retired High Court judge, Sir Richard Henriques, has been appointed to carry out an independent investigation of all matters involving the CPS which relate to the case.[4]

Saunders told the London Evening Standard a week later: "My job is not to be populist. It’s not to make decisions on the basis of what people want. It’s about making the right decisions."[56] On 16 April 2015, a few hours after the CPS decision, the Labour Party suspended Janner from membership of the party.[1]

"Lord Janner is a man of great integrity and high repute with a long and unblemished record of public service", his family said in a statement issued at the time of the CPS decision in April 2015. "He is entirely innocent of any wrongdoing. As the Crown Prosecution Service indicated today, this decision [not to prosecute] does not mean or imply that any of the allegations that have been made are established or that Lord Janner is guilty of any offence."[9]

Initial responses

After the announcement, Leicestershire Police, blamed in the CPS statement for past failures in the investigations into Janner's activities, said it was considering a request for a judicial review into the CPS decision. Solicitors representing alleged victims said that actions for damages against the peer were likely.[44]

Lord Macdonald, the former DPP, told the Today programme on BBC Radio 4 on 18 April that a decision over whether to prosecute Janner should have been taken in court by a judge, rather than by the CPS, to remove any doubt that the most recent investigation had been carried out properly.[57] The Exaro website revealed on the same day that Janner was being investigated as part of Operation Midland, the Metropolitan Police's investigation into the Westminster paedophile ring.[58]

It emerged that during April, Janner had written to the House of Lords clerks indicating that he did not wish to cease being an active peer. John Mann, who was then campaigning to retain his Bassetlaw seat for Labour during the 2015 general election, told The Daily Telegraph that all the documents relating to the upper chamber's contact with Janner should be made public. "I don't see how you can sign a document relating to membership of the House of Lords if you have dementia", he said.[59]

A cross-party letter co-ordinated by Simon Danczuk, a Labour politician, signed by 11 politicians from 7 parties, was published in The Times on 22 April. The signatories asserted: "As long as justice is not seen to be done and the greater public interest is not served, the public will see attempts to investigate establishment figures involved in historic child abuse as a whitewash."[60][61] The legal commentator Joshua Rozenberg, writing for The Guardian, accused the politicians of not understanding the legal system. Critical of other decisions Saunders has made as DPP, he nevertheless agreed with her judgement in the Janner case and said she should "be commended for defending her Janner decision in unprecedented detail".[53]

Subsequent developments

On 29 April, Lowell Goddard, the New Zealand judge appointed to head the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse, announced that she would also investigate the Janner case.[62] Goddard will have access to CPS files and the ability to interview Janner's alleged victims. Goddard was to review the medical evidence concerning Janner's fitness to stand trial, with the possibility that she might commission her own assessment, and question Janner if he had been declared medically fit.[63][64]

In the new parliament elected on 7 May 2015, 78 MPs supported a call by the Exaro website for a reversal of the DPP's (Alison Saunders) decision and for the case to go to court in a 'trial of the facts'.[65] This was the eventual ruling at the Old Bailey in December 2015, but Janner died soon afterwards, several months before a trial of the facts was scheduled to take place.

It emerged on 15 May 2015 that the CPS decision not to charge Lord Janner was being reviewed under the CPS Victims' Right to Review scheme by an external senior QC previously uninvolved in the case.[66][67]

Review of CPS decision

On 29 June 2015, it was reported the decision of the Director of Public Prosecutions not to prosecute Janner had been overturned by David Perry, the QC appointed to make a review of the CPS decision in April. A judge was now to decide if Janner was fit to stand a criminal trial.[68] The case was considered at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 7 August at which the court ruled that Janner must attend the preliminary hearing, if only briefly.[69] Janner was in court for less than a minute on 14 August to identify himself.[70] The next hearing was at the Old Bailey on 1 September; Janner was not required to appear.[5][71][72]

On 7 December 2015, it was ruled at the Old Bailey that Janner was unfit to stand trial.[6] The presiding judge, Mr Justice Openshaw, summarised his decision based on the evidence from four medical experts: "The defendant has advanced and disabling dementia that has deteriorated and is irreversible, and accordingly I find that he is unfit to plead." A trial of the facts was scheduled to take place in April 2016, at which a jury would have heard the evidence and come to a conclusion about Janner's alleged abuse, but would not have been able to decide Janner's innocence or guilt.[73] Janner died on 19 December 2015, and the court case will not go ahead.[7] According to Liz Dux, a solicitor for six of Janner's alleged abuse victims, claims against the estate will be made in the civil courts.[8]
