CAMBRIDGESHIRE detectives and representatives from the Crown Prosecution Service have met with European authorities in Holland to draw up plans on how to work together in the future.
The meeting organised by Eurojust, a European Union body which exists to improve the co-ordination of investigations and prosecutions between the authorities of member states, follows a case in which Manea man David Gray died from a morphine overdose
last year.
Earlier this year, German locum Daniel Ubani was convicted in Germany of the manslaughter of Mr Gray, who died in February 2008.
Seventy-year-old Mr Gray was given 10 times the recommended dose of morphine to treat kidney pains after Ubani mixed it up with another drug.
On Wednesday Cambridgeshire detectives and prosecutors from the Crown Prosecution Service Eastern Group Complex Casework Unit met with Eurojust and the German Court authority.
A police spokesman said: “The meeting was a useful and constructive opportunity for Cambridgeshire Police to highlight the impact this case has had on Mr Gray's family and for the CPS to determine fully the circumstances that prevailed in this case.
“It has been agreed that the details of this case should be examined so we can decide how best to work with each other over international borders in the future.
“Cambridgeshire Police and the CPS would like to thank Eurojust for their assistance in setting up this meeting and the German authorities for taking part.”
