Fox News
A man recently cleared in the 1995 subway murder of a token booth clerk is suing New York City for $50 million after decades of wrongful imprisonment.
"Malik seeks redress for the official misconduct that caused him to spend nearly 27 years in prison, and the mental and physical injuries he sustained while incarcerated," lawyers Ronald Kuby and Rhidaya Trivedi wrote in the lawsuit.
The city Law Department said it would review Malik’s suit. His former co-defendants, Vincent Ellerbe and James Irons, also have sought compensation.
