Mr Bagri's lawyer also claimed his lawyer was innocent and claimed wiretap evidence - which the judge had ruled inadmissible - would have pointed to his client's innocence.
Comments:
"Ladies and Gentleman of the jury, I put it to you that my lawyer is innocent. I put it to you that my lawyer was nowhere near that plane. As my client's lawyer, if my lawyer was nowhere near that plane, and I was nowhere near that plane, neither was my client. My lawyer's lawyer's lawyer's client's client's client's lawyer's client's innocence is proved!" It's an interesting defence, but I'm doubtful as regards its efficacy.
