The Supreme Court of Canada ruled Friday that one of the men convicted in a 2007 gangland murder should have the chance to provide evidence related to allegations of police misconduct and treatment in solitary confinement.

In a unanimous decision the top court agreed with the B.C. Court of Appeal that it was a mistake to dismiss the applications to have all of that evidence heard.
