The Bishop of Liverpool has spoken of the "travesty of justice" suffered by a jailed football fan.
The Right Rev James Jones said the failure to deal justly with the case of Michael Shields, 22, was "nothing short of a scandal".
A judicial review into the case starts next week. Shields was jailed for 15 years in Bulgaria in 2005 after a barman was attacked following Liverpool FC's European Cup Final victory in Istanbul.
He is now serving his sentence at a jail in Cumbria.
