Delighted Client | Birmingham Crown Court | Kangs Criminal Defence Solicitors

Share

Kangs Solicitors have recently successfully assisted a client charged with Robbery and Theft before Birmingham Crown Court.

Nazaqat Maqsoom of Kangs Solicitors reports on the circumstances.

The Events | Kangs Criminal Defence Solicitors

In June 2017 an incident occurred outside our client’s home which lead to the allegation  that our client, along with others, had been  involved in a robbery during which a firearm had been used.

The incident was witnessed by a passer-by.

 How We Were Able To Assist | Kangs Trial Preparation Team

  • We attended with our client and guided him during his police interviews.
  • We discussed in detail with our client the circumstances and took meticulous notes of his instructions.
  • We examined the Police witness statements and CCTV Evidence with our client.
  • We attended with our client before the Magistrates’ Court when the case was transferred to the Crown Court for a Plea and Trial Preparation Hearing

The Plea & Trial Preparation Hearing | Kangs Crown Court Defence Solicitors

Following detailed discussions, the Prosecution accepted that the evidence did not support the allegations of robbery & theft.

However, the CCTV evidence showed our client committing the assault which was accepted by our client who maintained that this had occurred as the result of provocation.

Accordingly, a Basis of Plea was prepared and accepted by the Prosecution setting out the limited extent of liability on the part of our client.

Our client entered a guilty plea to a single count of Assault Occasioning Actual Bodily Harm and the case was adjourned for Sentencing.

The Successful Outcome | Kangs Sentencing Hearing Solicitors

Having considered all mitigation submitted on behalf of our client and his Basis of Plea the Judge sentenced our client to:

  • A twelve months Community Order
  • along with sixty hours of unpaid work,

which represented an outstanding result for our client for which he was extremely pleased.

A cut-throat defence arises where, during criminal proceedings, a defendant gives evidence on his own behalf and which is not only likely to strengthen the prosecution case but is designed to damage a co-defendant’s case to the extent that it may go as far as blaming the co-defendant whilst endeavouring to exonerate himself.
