She added much of the evidence in the case would centre on why Pitchfork - who has changed his name twice following his conviction in 1988 - was recalled to prison, some details of which cannot be heard in public.
Ms Corby said: "In circumstances where evidence which is likely to be critical to the panel's decision cannot be heard in public, it is difficult to see how a public hearing would aid transparency or public understanding of the parole system or the decision in this case. The Conservative MP for South Leicestershire, Alberto Costa, had called for Pitchfork's hearing to be heard in public."Pitchfork is a convicted child-rapist and killer and was the first offender to be convicted using DNA fingerprinting evidence," he said.
