The detective who caught Levi Bellfield—the serial killer serving a whole life sentence for murdering 13-year-old Milly Dowler and two young women—has called for the law to be changed after the authorities admitted they were powerless to stop Bellfield from getting married.

Bellfield, 55, reportedly proposed to his fiancee—who has not been named— during one of her visits and then threatened legal action if he was prevented from having a wedding in jail.
