Another Serious Drugs Conspiracy Acquittal for Unan Choudhury & James Stansfield of Counsel

26 September 2013

Crime & Fraud Cases

Unan Choudhury acted for a young man facing a variety of serious drugs offences involving class A and B drugs. The very talented James Stansfield of counsel (Furnival Chambers) was the advocate in the case.

Both lawyers worked diligently, preparing complex legal argument that persuaded the prosecution to drop three of the charges, but the CPS insisted upon prosecuting our client for possession with intent to supply 500g of cocaine at 80% purity.

Our client had maintained his innocence throughout, however five days before trial the CPS served upon us 5,000 pages of detailed telephone call schedules, text message schedules, and surveillance schedules.

Unan and James meticulously analysed all this documentation and, despite this pressure, were able to persuade the jury of our client's innocent association and who then unanimously acquitted him.

Another delighted LNL client!
