London 7/7 bombings victim still waiting for compensation

A man from Caerphilly county injured in the London bombings has criticised the time it has taken for his compensation claim to be dealt with.

Stefano Poborko, 52, was riding on a Tube train between King's Cross and Aldgate when a suicide bomber detonated a device on 7 July 2005.

He suffered burns and was later diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Mr Poborko, from Newbridge, applied in March 2015 to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) but is still waiting.

The CICA said it deals with all applications "as quickly as possible".
