Katie was just 21 when died at Polmont prison in 2018.
Ms Allan said she and her husband have been researching and collecting data as they try to “come to terms and understand what happened in the establishment”.“It will be five years on June 4 since our daughter died.”
The main reason for the delay is the fact the family are pursuing a criminal conviction of the prison service, she said, something the Crown Office is still investigating. Due to the principle of Crown immunity, a direct prosecution of the prison service has proved to be legally difficult.She said: ““It makes no sense to me why we as a society put traumatised, disenfranchised young people into a traumatic environment.”
She noted there have been 49 deaths of under-25s in the prison system since 2005, most of whom took their own lives within the first three months of incarceration.
