The James Onanefe Ibori London trial developed a new twist, as the British Police paid Ibori’s former counsel, Mr. Bhadresh Gohil, a hefty sum of £20,000 in an out-of-court settlement after being unlawfully deprived of his liberty over Ibori case.
The extraordinary payment is the latest turn in a legal case, as the Police investigators and British Crown prosecutors are now facing allegations of police corruption and a cover-up of key evidence. The BBC celebrated the story, weekend, with a dispatch, entitled, 'Ibori’s lawyer awarded 20,000 Pounds' … as British prosecution admits manipulation charge.
Last week, the Police paid Gohil for an infringement committed last November. He was expected to be released then, but less than a week before the release date, prosecution barrister, Sasha Wass, successfully applied for this to be revoked and Gohil was detained for three more weeks. So Gohil went to court and accused the Prosecution of blatant lies to mislead the court. Gohil, who has been seeking to have his convictions overturned since 2012, has been the target of an on-going smear campaign by the Met Police and the Crown Prosecution to derail the Appeal.
