The convictions of Michael Stone for The Murders of Lin Russell and Her Daughter Megan are to be reviewed.

The Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) will look at evidence again, three months after a previous review ruled out the case being sent to The Court of Appeal.

The decision comes after serial killer Levi Bellfield , whose victims include schoolgirl Milly Dowler, was reported to have confessed to the crimes.

Stone is serving three life sentences.

The CCRC said in a statement that " previous reviews found no credible evidence or argument that raised a real possibility of the convictions being quashed, these conclusions are not affected by the new review".

Ms Russell, 45, and her six-year-old daughter were found bludgeoned to death in Chillenden, Kent, In July 1996.

Stone has always protested his innocence over The Murders , and of the attempted murder Megan's sister Josie.

In July , the CCRC ruled there was was " no real possibility" The Court of Appeal would quash his convictions.

However, following the latest application a CCRC spokesman said: " We have agreed to a request from Mr Stone's representatives to carry out a further review.

" While we can't comment on the specifics of an investigation, it is not unusual for different reviews to Focus On different arguments or evidence.

" Our commitment to thoroughly investigate all eligible applications extends to undertaking additional work related to cases we have previously reviewed. "
