With a Stain on Your Name



The case against former Met Commander Ali Dezaei lacked a certain robustness from the start (See blog entry March 2010 'One Way or Another').


His release from custody this week is not the end of the story. Although the main witness in the trial was found to be thoroughly unreliable (using a false name in court for a start) he still faces a re-trial.


For that reason I am unable to say much more in view of the law on Contempt of Court. But it was astonishing Mrs Devaei was easily able to uncover the witness's deception when the investigating team did not.
