Ashley Peacock (click here) loves animals and the outdoors. But for the last five years he has been locked in an isolated mental health unit, allowed out for just 90 minutes a day. Experts warn it's a breach of human rights and his family are desperate to see him free....
...But today he was listless. Once the carrot was gone the men trudged the 400 metres back to the hospital grounds.
His father said goodbye. Ashley was taken inside a white block building. The door was locked behind him.
It has been five years, five months, and three weeks since Ashley was put in seclusion.
He is allowed outdoors for just 90 minutes a day....
