2. R v Thakrar – client acquitted, Bark &
Co Solicitors London News
Fred Bunn has successfully secured the
acquittal of Kevan Thakrar. Our client is a
serving prisoner having previously been
convicted of triple murder in 2009.
Kevan Thakrar was charged with 2 counts
of attempted murder and 3 counts of causing
grievous bodily harm with intent. All
allegations related to attacks on prison
officers in HMP Frankland, Durham.
3. Giving evidence, Kevan Thakrar
informed the jury that he suffers from
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder following
an attack on him by officers within the
prison system. His defense centered
around the bullying and racism that he
has sustained whilst in the prison
system and that his actions were in self
defense.
4. The Solicitor instructed, Marie
Bourke, along with a dedicated
defense team from Bark & Co, sought
and succeeded in obtaining information
which severely undermined the
prosecution case and highlighted the
torturous regime which is alive within
the prison system. Great lengths were
taken to secure evidence from legal
professionals, professionals within the
medical field, as well serving prisoners.
