0:00:02 > 0:00:03I love that you put into everything you do, when you've got a wig on.

0:00:03 > 0:00:05I am the only reason that you're allowed to carry on existing.

0:00:05 > 0:00:07You have lots in common, you and Elizabeth -

0:00:07 > 0:00:10brave, strong, surrounded by men, saying no to all of them.

0:00:10 > 0:00:13- How long? - DOCTOR: Every case is different.

0:00:13 > 0:00:15- Keep an eye. - I won't be here,

0:00:15 > 0:00:17because I'm dying.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20Your clients come first. But where are they, Martha? Here with you now?

0:00:20 > 0:00:23There is one thing I'll be asking for in return.

0:00:23 > 0:00:25I can't be only a lawyer, Clive.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27- But, Martha...- Will you just leave me alone?

0:01:08 > 0:01:10HE SNIFFS

0:01:11 > 0:01:13- Billy Lamb? - What do you want?

0:01:13 > 0:01:16- I'm a solicitor. - Well, that's a relief.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19It's family. I...I really need your help.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21I need Martha Costello.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24Well, why didn't you say so? Come in, come in.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29HE PANTS

0:01:33 > 0:01:35HE SIGHS

0:01:35 > 0:01:38I came in today with verve in my loins.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42My question is, can I make it to the end of the day feeling the same way?

0:01:42 > 0:01:43Your grooming trial, miss...

0:01:43 > 0:01:45- Yes, John? - ..turned into a conspiracy.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48- Just like that?- Well, no-one could get hold of you.

0:01:48 > 0:01:51And the CPS have just delivered a batch of phone logs.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54- A batch? - A...bit more than that.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57- Right. - And your judge is Alan Cowdrey.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02The words I'm waiting to hear are, "But don't worry,

0:02:02 > 0:02:05"I've got you a junior and they're already on it."

0:02:05 > 0:02:06Sorry, miss.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Get Jake to shift that lot.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10Jake left. Remember?

0:02:12 > 0:02:16Worth remembering, Harriet, I'm the talent, darling.

0:02:16 > 0:02:17You're backstage.

0:02:22 > 0:02:23KNOCK AT DOOR

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Miss, this is Dani Kakwani.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30Martha Costello.

0:02:31 > 0:02:32The, er...Arizona bombing.

0:02:35 > 0:02:36What about it?

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Hassan Makhdoom was blown up in the attack.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42His brother Sajit survived and is about to stand trial.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44So...

0:02:44 > 0:02:46The US want to extradite someone else from Wolverhampton Tech.

0:02:46 > 0:02:50My nephew Rashid, they're saying he was involved,

0:02:50 > 0:02:53that he did some sort of hacking to plan for their attack.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57- Some sort of hacking? - This is the US Government.

0:02:57 > 0:02:58They're not big on sharing their thoughts

0:02:58 > 0:03:00with a solicitor whose dad was born in Lahore.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03- I'm not an extradition lawyer. - Nor am I,

0:03:03 > 0:03:04but Rashid's running out of options

0:03:04 > 0:03:07and the judge doesn't want the case reopened.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09I need someone who's going to fight for him.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13Even if I wanted to help, you need someone who understands the arguments.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18- Clive, you've done extradition. - Once. Never again.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20- Why?- Because you lose.

0:03:20 > 0:03:21CLEARS THROAT

0:03:23 > 0:03:24Can I see?

0:03:31 > 0:03:33You could argue improper purpose.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36Looks like the US have drawn up charges without knowing if he's involved,

0:03:36 > 0:03:38to get him into the interrogation programme, to find out if he is.

0:03:38 > 0:03:39It's what they do.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42- Lying so they can torture people.- I didn't say that.

0:03:42 > 0:03:43Yes, you did.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Oh, good. You two have found each other.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52His parents are good people.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54He plays cricket in the street, for goodness' sake.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56There's no way he's mixed up in this.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01KEYS JANGLE

0:04:01 > 0:04:03GATE BUZZES AND BEEPS

0:04:10 > 0:04:12I never even knew the brothers.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15They were at my college, that's all.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19And I'm a follower of the Prophet.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Violence is haram. I could have never done what they're saying.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25Rashid, if the US is trying to get you there to interrogate,

0:04:25 > 0:04:28we can still argue improper purpose.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30That's what they do in Guantanamo, isn't it?

0:04:31 > 0:04:35They don't tell you why you're there. They... They don't show you anything.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37But this is England.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39My father came here when he was 18

0:04:39 > 0:04:43because he wanted to live in the home of democracy.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48And now he has to hear his son...called a terrorist.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53And his son can't even tell him what the evidence is.

0:04:55 > 0:04:56Why?

0:04:56 > 0:04:58That sounds like a good place to start.

0:05:00 > 0:05:04Asking why and not taking no for an answer.

0:05:04 > 0:05:09If they decide to make me their scapegoat, I will not get on that plane.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13I don't care what I have to do to myself.

0:05:15 > 0:05:16I'll do it.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Prosecution as the promised land?

0:05:20 > 0:05:22You have to give the people hope.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Yeah, but some of the people here have never done prosecution.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28CW is moving in on the junior end and the squeezed middle

0:05:28 > 0:05:30cos she sees how unhappy they are.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33She thinks a bit of agitprop will get their votes.

0:05:33 > 0:05:34Her message is one of despair.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36What? And I'm hope?

0:05:37 > 0:05:39Well, if CW is despair and I'm hope, what's Martha?

0:05:39 > 0:05:40I don't think she knows.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Hello, Billy.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49In with the new.

0:05:49 > 0:05:50Out with the old.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54- What hearing? - JOHN: We sent a pupil.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Amy Lang. It was a five-minute application to move the trial date forward.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01- To Monday. Did Ms Lang fight it? - She had your dates.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03And there's no clash in my diary, so in your clerking brain

0:06:03 > 0:06:07the fact that I've got about 100 hours of preparation to do...

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Miss, I'll understand if you don't want to carry on with the campaign.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12I want you to get everyone in chambers

0:06:12 > 0:06:15who is as fed up as I am with this nightmare of a life

0:06:15 > 0:06:16and send them to see me.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18I am their candidate.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22I am sick and tired of being exhausted because there's no legal aid for juniors,

0:06:22 > 0:06:26which means I stay up all night every night working on complex trials

0:06:26 > 0:06:28only to be told I'm a fat cat by a government

0:06:28 > 0:06:31full of the fattest cats in the history of fatness!

0:06:31 > 0:06:32And get me Amy.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36Since she's happy for this trial to start so soon, she can bloody well help.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38Hello, miss.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41I need you to call Damian Garner at the Maudsley.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43I want a full psychiatric assessment on Rashid Hirani.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Done. - How was your con, by the way?

0:06:46 > 0:06:51Forget abuse of process. I'm going to fight and win on mental-health grounds.

0:06:51 > 0:06:52What mental-health grounds?

0:06:52 > 0:06:54- He wants to kill himself. - Martha...

0:06:54 > 0:06:57- Shoe Lane.- I'm sorry, but it's the right argument.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00He's a vulnerable child and what they're doing to him is abusive.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02He's being destroyed by an unjust process.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04If they get him to the States, they'll get him to say whatever they want him to.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Hold the line, would you, please?

0:07:06 > 0:07:09- CLEARS THROAT - Miss, I've got an Elizabeth Forester from the US Embassy.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13Says she'd like to speak to you and that she could save you a lot of effort.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16- Martha. - Er...Amy, sorry,

0:07:16 > 0:07:19just got to take this call. Thank you.

0:07:19 > 0:07:20Hello, Martha Costello.

0:07:20 > 0:07:21Amy?

0:07:22 > 0:07:26- What is it?- Amy, can you come with me, please?

0:07:26 > 0:07:27It's nothing.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35We don't need regulating. If we're not good enough, we don't get the work.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37JOHN: Miss?

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Amy, you're not busy, are you? Good.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42The grooming trial you so kindly agreed to bring forward for me.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45The evidence the police just sent me is in there.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49Read it, schedule the hell out of it, and tell me everything I need to know.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50We have three days.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53So, can I count on your vote, David?

0:07:53 > 0:07:55CW CHUCKLES

0:07:58 > 0:08:00- AMERICAN ACCENT:- I understand that you saw Rashid today.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Who told you that?

0:08:04 > 0:08:07I thought you should know that the US takes its duty of care to prisoners,

0:08:07 > 0:08:10especially vulnerable prisoners, very seriously...

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Who told you that I saw Rashid today?

0:08:13 > 0:08:16..which is why I'd like you to consider these assurances.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22First of all, we can now guarantee that Rashid will not go to Guantanamo Bay.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25There was never any mention of Guantanamo.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27We can also guarantee, if you co-operate,

0:08:27 > 0:08:31that as a UK citizen, he will not face the death penalty.

0:08:31 > 0:08:37But if he goes into your prison system he will be living under 23-hour lockdown,

0:08:37 > 0:08:38he won't see his family,

0:08:38 > 0:08:41he won't have proper access to legal advice,

0:08:41 > 0:08:45and, as present history suggests, you'll be employing interrogation techniques,

0:08:45 > 0:08:49which, to be frank, are a little bit bloody medieval.

0:08:49 > 0:08:54Martha, due to the importance of this case, we will make more compromises.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Why are you sounding like a press officer?

0:08:57 > 0:08:59We can just speak English.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03Rashid will be housed under regular US prison conditions.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06He will have 24-hour access to medical supervision.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07We'll provide him with his own psychologist

0:09:07 > 0:09:12and he will be free to choose his own attorney in accordance with Arizona law.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15He's not well enough, even with your assurances.

0:09:15 > 0:09:16- ELIZABETH:- Hm.

0:09:18 > 0:09:22Isn't it odd how suicide is a terrible sin for Muslims,

0:09:22 > 0:09:26except when they're blowing themselves up or about to face extradition?

0:09:27 > 0:09:31- So, are...are you leaving? - Excuse me?

0:09:31 > 0:09:34Because I haven't finished yet.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37If we don't win on the mental-health argument,

0:09:37 > 0:09:40we will go back to improper purpose.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42There's not enough detail on the charges

0:09:42 > 0:09:45to prove that you're not just getting Rashid over for interrogation.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47OK, if that's the case,

0:09:47 > 0:09:52then the US Government is happy to add a little flesh to the indictment.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55We know where the hacking happened, Martha, we know when it was done,

0:09:55 > 0:09:58and the minute Rashid hits US soil,

0:09:58 > 0:10:01he will go on trial for conspiracy to murder innocent Americans.

0:10:06 > 0:10:07Good day.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13Sami Allahu liman Hamidah.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Allahu Akbar.

0:10:16 > 0:10:18Allahu Akbar.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21Allahu Akbar.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25Allahu Akbar.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30Rashid, I know you've lost faith in this process,

0:10:30 > 0:10:33but we have an opportunity now, a small one.

0:10:35 > 0:10:40The US has added information to your charges because they want us to give up.

0:10:40 > 0:10:45Our one hope is that somewhere in what they've added there's a mistake or a lie.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52I need you to answer some questions for me...truthfully.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Were you at the college at the time the attack was planned,

0:11:00 > 0:11:03the two-day window they've got down here?

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Yeah.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Were you in the hall of residence they say, with the brothers,

0:11:10 > 0:11:13when the attack was planned, at the time?

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Rashid, answer.

0:11:20 > 0:11:21Yeah, I was.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24And what about the room?

0:11:24 > 0:11:30See, now, they say they can pinpoint that hacking to a specific computer

0:11:30 > 0:11:32in a specific room.

0:11:37 > 0:11:42- What is it?- No. No, I was never in that room.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45- And you're certain of that? - Yeah.

0:11:45 > 0:11:46The room they say I did that hacking in,

0:11:46 > 0:11:49I...I never stepped foot in it during the time they say.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53- Abuse of process. - What?

0:11:53 > 0:11:55When you wake up in the morning, the first three seconds of consciousness,

0:11:55 > 0:11:57do you think about the case you're doing?

0:11:57 > 0:11:58Yes.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01Is it abuse of process,

0:12:01 > 0:12:04if I can prove the US got details wrong on their charge summary?

0:12:04 > 0:12:05Depends what and where.

0:12:05 > 0:12:06Well, the US had put Rashid

0:12:06 > 0:12:09in a specific room at a specific time doing this research.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11Now, he says he wasn't there.

0:12:11 > 0:12:15Martha, if they're being that specific, then they must have proof.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18I bet you dream about them too.

0:12:18 > 0:12:19- NORTHERN ACCENT:- All right, Mar?

0:12:20 > 0:12:25You probably don't share cigarettes any more, do you?

0:12:25 > 0:12:28- I don't smoke roll-ups any more. - No, not here, not with this crowd.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32It's amazing in here, but it makes you feel like you're not allowed in.

0:12:32 > 0:12:3420 years ago, you'd have said that was anti-democratic.

0:12:35 > 0:12:36Why are you here, Sean?

0:12:36 > 0:12:38- I was passing. - Oh, right, you were passing?

0:12:38 > 0:12:40I was passing, and I thought,

0:12:40 > 0:12:42"What happened to the girl that broke my teenage heart?"

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Um...listen, I'll, er... I'll see you in chambers.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Yeah.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Not your husband, is he? - And what would you say if he was?

0:12:52 > 0:12:54I'd ask you why you married a big dolphin.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56I hope he's not the jealous type

0:12:56 > 0:13:01cos I would love to go for a coffee with you, Martha Costello.

0:13:01 > 0:13:06First you tell me why you're here... and then I'll think about coffee.

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Maybe another time, then.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25Who was that? Mr Mysterious.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29Sean McBride.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Right. Thanks. Who's Sean McBride?

0:13:31 > 0:13:34He's...

0:13:34 > 0:13:36He's what I used to be.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41Well, anyway, um... if you want to argue abuse of process,

0:13:41 > 0:13:43it's not enough to say that the information was false.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46You have to prove that the US knew it was false.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48And how the hell are you going to do that...

0:13:48 > 0:13:49Mar?

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Ah! Put extradition on the chambers website, would you, Harriet?

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Another string to the Shoe Lane bow.

0:13:56 > 0:13:57- Well done. - Whoa!

0:13:57 > 0:14:01- Was that a compliment?- I always give credit where it's due.

0:14:01 > 0:14:06Maybe it's the female mind - open, capable of thinking beyond dull prejudice.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08What, and Clive Reader's a better candidate than Martha Costello

0:14:08 > 0:14:10for head of chambers?

0:14:10 > 0:14:11I think so.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14- Do you fancy him, Harriet?- What's that got to do with anything?

0:14:14 > 0:14:16- I'm just asking. - Just sexist.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Imagine if I asked you the same question.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20- What? Do I fancy Clive Reader? - Do you fancy Martha Costello?

0:14:20 > 0:14:26How I feel about Miss Costello surpasseth all understanding.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Talking of medieval, you know what amazes me?

0:14:45 > 0:14:46How much energy you're expending

0:14:46 > 0:14:49on someone who would ban you from working and getting an education,

0:14:49 > 0:14:52and who would expect you to walk behind him all the way back to the 13th century.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Have you been practising that speech?

0:14:55 > 0:14:57Are women even allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia?

0:14:59 > 0:15:01You see, there's a disconnect.

0:15:01 > 0:15:05Rashid is 19 years old. He's an individual. He feels like a victim.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07But the real victims?

0:15:07 > 0:15:12Frances Brady, Adam Gilmartin, Joey Maldini, Angel Valera.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Four University of West Arizona students,

0:15:15 > 0:15:18enjoying their graduation day, with the whole of their lives ahead of them,

0:15:18 > 0:15:21when they were blown to pieces.

0:15:21 > 0:15:22Brady was pregnant.

0:15:22 > 0:15:24That's not the point.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26If that's not, what is?

0:15:28 > 0:15:31Oh, didn't you know? I've got dual qualification.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34With this much lazy anti-American feeling around,

0:15:34 > 0:15:39we think it's better that an American stands up for America.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42- That's the point. - Sorry?

0:15:42 > 0:15:46There's a principle that transcends national interest and religion

0:15:46 > 0:15:49and...well, everything else.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53Habeas corpus, Elizabeth, the right to be tried,

0:15:53 > 0:15:57the right to know what you're accused of so that you can defend yourself.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05USHER: All rise.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19- JUDGE:- Miss Costello...

0:16:19 > 0:16:23- CLEARS THROAT - ..from what I can see from your skeleton argument,

0:16:23 > 0:16:28you want to reopen this appeal by arguing that there's been an abuse of process

0:16:28 > 0:16:30and forcing the United States

0:16:30 > 0:16:34to show you all the evidence they have against Rashid Hirani?

0:16:34 > 0:16:37- Your Lordship will have seen... - I'm a direct man, Miss Costello,

0:16:37 > 0:16:38and I've been told you're the same.

0:16:38 > 0:16:42I do not want this appeal reopened without good reason.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Now, what is the answer to my question?

0:16:44 > 0:16:47My client has always maintained he was set up

0:16:47 > 0:16:50and now there's a discrepancy that confirms that.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Why has it taken six months for him to remember this?

0:16:52 > 0:16:57The United States have only just added the specific location.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00The, er...room in the hall of residence.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02This is our first chance to respond to it.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06This detail is crucial

0:17:06 > 0:17:10because it's the only thing that links him to the conspiracy.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12Ms Forester?

0:17:12 > 0:17:16My lord, whatever Mr Hirani claims,

0:17:16 > 0:17:20we are confident that he was in that room at the time the hacking was activated.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22We can put him there.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25We're happy to let the court see further evidence,

0:17:25 > 0:17:27if it can help bring this process to an end.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30You have two days.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33USHER: All rise.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42- CW:- What's our listing?

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Er...court nine, first on at ten.

0:17:45 > 0:17:46- Time now? - Ten to.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48So, fill me in. The phone logs?

0:17:48 > 0:17:50Er...there's lots.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Yes, Amy. Bottom line, is it for us or against us?

0:17:52 > 0:17:55From what I've seen, um...

0:17:55 > 0:17:59the stuff I've been able to examine has been mainly from the men to the girl.

0:17:59 > 0:18:00OK.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04- Er...- I've asked you to prepare a schedule.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08I'm guessing you haven't done that, so all I want is a simple, clear answer instead.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11Does this work for us or not?

0:18:11 > 0:18:15The material mainly consists of calls and texts that suggest bullying and coercion.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17So, yeah.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19Yes, I... I'd say it definitely helps us

0:18:19 > 0:18:21in trying to prove that there was a conspiracy.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23There.

0:18:23 > 0:18:24Wasn't so hard.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Hello, Caroline.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36So exciting to be against you. One just doesn't know what's coming.

0:18:36 > 0:18:41- SMACKS LIPS - Which Albanian paedophile are you representing?

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Touch of racism there.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45Under pressure, are we?

0:18:45 > 0:18:49I don't need to remind you that this is the property of the US Government,

0:18:49 > 0:18:52so if you leak it or share it with any party not involved in this case,

0:18:52 > 0:18:55you're in violation of US law and at risk of prosecution.

0:18:55 > 0:18:56I don't know. Maybe a drink would do it.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58What?

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Stop you making speeches and get you talking instead.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04I know it's hard for you to accept what Rashid was part of,

0:19:04 > 0:19:07but our investigators were pushed to the limit finding this material.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09It was hidden deep on his hard drive.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13Once you've had a chance to look at that, I hope you can accept it,

0:19:13 > 0:19:15however painful that may be.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19Oh, hello.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22- Clive Reader.- I know.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25Thank you, Elizabeth. I think we've got everything.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33- WHISPERS:- Jesus, that woman!

0:19:34 > 0:19:35What's this?

0:19:35 > 0:19:40Evidence, apparently, that Rashid Hirani is linked to the bombing.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42I mean, half of it's redacted.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45That's to protect the security services who gathered it. Look.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46The MI5 seal,

0:19:46 > 0:19:48telling you that the bulk of the evidence that the US is relying on

0:19:48 > 0:19:50has actually been gathered by British intelligence.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52That's why they're so confident.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54So, none of this links to the bombing.

0:19:54 > 0:19:55What are you talking about?

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Jihadi websites.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Searches on Yemeni training camps.

0:20:01 > 0:20:05This does not put him in room 132, hacking into security details.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07Martha, if they've got this, imagine what else they've got.

0:20:07 > 0:20:08Well, maybe this is everything.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11Rashid is radicalised. Why can't you see that?

0:20:11 > 0:20:15I am only interested in whether he's linked directly to doing that research.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17Well, is this clear enough for you?

0:20:24 > 0:20:26You said you didn't even know the Makhdoom brothers.

0:20:26 > 0:20:30I mean, what did you think? They wouldn't find these?

0:20:35 > 0:20:37Answer her, Rashid!

0:20:37 > 0:20:39These photos aren't right.

0:20:39 > 0:20:43This is a picture of you in a corridor

0:20:43 > 0:20:45with the two people who set off the bomb in Arizona,

0:20:45 > 0:20:47and that's not all.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49They've got you outside the room

0:20:49 > 0:20:52where they say the university's security details were hacked,

0:20:52 > 0:20:54and, this is the killer blow,

0:20:54 > 0:20:57they've got a witness

0:20:57 > 0:21:01who says they can place you in the room where the hacking was done.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03Rashid.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06- We believed you. - I promise.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08I was never in that room.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Is that you or isn't it?

0:21:16 > 0:21:17I only met them briefly.

0:21:21 > 0:21:22I didn't admit it, because I know how it would look,

0:21:22 > 0:21:25but I...I only met them once, on that day.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27And what happened?

0:21:27 > 0:21:30Sorry, but if...if you've lied about this,

0:21:30 > 0:21:33how am I supposed to believe you're still innocent?

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Because there was someone else there as well.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40He was the one who said that we should meet the brothers.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44He was the one that pushed me into it...

0:21:46 > 0:21:48..who said...

0:21:48 > 0:21:53if we were true Muslims, we'd listen to what they had to say.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56Rashid, who are you talking about?

0:21:56 > 0:21:59I'm talking about someone who was there.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02I'm talking about a friend.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11He should have been in that photo.

0:22:11 > 0:22:15He was at that meeting, and...and whoever gave this to you has taken him out.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17- MARTHA:- What was his name, Rashid?

0:22:18 > 0:22:19I promised.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28LOW CHATTER (This is how you open, Amy.)

0:22:28 > 0:22:32Get it right and, by the time you sit down, the trial can be effectively over.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33Yes, Ms Warwick?

0:22:33 > 0:22:35CLEARS THROAT

0:22:35 > 0:22:38Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,

0:22:38 > 0:22:43this was a case of systematic and brutal exploitation.

0:22:43 > 0:22:50Three men identified, isolated, groomed and terrorised a vulnerable teenager.

0:22:50 > 0:22:54They separated her from her family

0:22:54 > 0:22:59and used her for their own revolting sexual purposes.

0:22:59 > 0:23:00She is 17.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03They are all over 40.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08The defence will seek to portray her actions as consenting,

0:23:08 > 0:23:10but all you need to know

0:23:10 > 0:23:14is that in one three-week period

0:23:14 > 0:23:22this victim was bombarded by over 2,000 texts, e-mails and calls from these men,

0:23:22 > 0:23:25a relentless barrage of disgusting demands

0:23:25 > 0:23:29that this young victim was hopelessly ill-equipped to resist.

0:23:29 > 0:23:34These alone demonstrate the defendants conspired to...

0:23:34 > 0:23:38This is the first time that I've ever had to do this, my lord,

0:23:38 > 0:23:41and it gives me no pleasure,

0:23:41 > 0:23:44but I feel compelled to interrupt my learned friend

0:23:44 > 0:23:46and ask that the jury leave the court.

0:23:50 > 0:23:51Jury, five minutes, please.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56LOW CHATTER

0:23:59 > 0:24:04Never in my whole career have I had an opening interrupted.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06You are blatantly misleading the jury.

0:24:07 > 0:24:14In at least 40% of the material that my learned friend is talking about...

0:24:16 > 0:24:20..it was from the complainant to the men, not the other way round.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30I'm so sorry. I was sure I'd gone through this box.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39These texts are from the girl.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43I thought I'd said I wasn't sure. Look, I'm sorry, I'm just a bit stressed.

0:24:43 > 0:24:47We're all stressed, ducky. It's the Criminal Bar.

0:24:48 > 0:24:49SHE SIGHS

0:24:49 > 0:24:51I'm sorry.

0:24:51 > 0:24:52And don't worry.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55It's not fatal.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00PHONES RING

0:25:00 > 0:25:04- It's for Martha. It's from the Maudsley.- Thanks.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07- There's a message from the doctor.- Sure.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11- So, what's happened?- He didn't deny he met the brothers.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13But he says there was someone else there,

0:25:13 > 0:25:16somebody he doesn't want to get into trouble, who knew them better,

0:25:16 > 0:25:19and someone who was in this image before it was altered.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21Did you believe him?

0:25:21 > 0:25:22I don't know.

0:25:25 > 0:25:26Ooh! Whose are these?

0:25:26 > 0:25:28They came for you, miss. Actually, they were hand-delivered.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30Grateful client, maybe?

0:25:31 > 0:25:32Possibly.

0:25:35 > 0:25:36- Amy? - Can I have a word?

0:25:46 > 0:25:48What's he look like, then, flower man?

0:25:48 > 0:25:51Tall, dark, handsome.

0:25:51 > 0:25:52Northern.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57- How's the trial? - Erm...not great.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01- Why? - This isn't about the trial.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03I've been trying to talk to you about this, but I didn't know how.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07What is it?

0:26:09 > 0:26:10Billy.

0:26:12 > 0:26:13What about him?

0:26:15 > 0:26:17He took me to the pub

0:26:17 > 0:26:19and when we were there he promised that he'd get me tenancy.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Well...

0:26:22 > 0:26:23And he said it while his hand was on my knee,

0:26:23 > 0:26:26and the same thing happened a second time.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28When?

0:26:28 > 0:26:30At Alan Cowdrey's party.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33Are you sure?

0:26:34 > 0:26:37Yeah, and I swear I didn't do anything to encourage him.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40I didn't do anything to lead him on.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42SHE SNIFFS

0:26:42 > 0:26:46The reason I didn't tell you was because I came here to learn from you,

0:26:46 > 0:26:49not to be a part of some scandal,

0:26:49 > 0:26:52and because if I don't get tenancy here, I don't know how I'm going to survive.

0:26:54 > 0:26:55Right.

0:26:55 > 0:27:00I want you to go home, get a good night's sleep and let me take care of it.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02OK?

0:27:07 > 0:27:08DANI: Martha.

0:27:10 > 0:27:11What did you get?

0:27:11 > 0:27:12I went to the college to find out

0:27:12 > 0:27:14who was resident in room 132 and that's what I got.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17Redacted. Did you try and...

0:27:17 > 0:27:19They're not at liberty to share that information.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21They said a man from the MOD had been in to see them.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24MOD is what MI5 are when they're pretending to be normal.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26So Rashid is protecting someone.

0:27:26 > 0:27:30Yeah, but so are MI5 and, from what I can see, they're the same person.

0:27:30 > 0:27:31Miss Costello,

0:27:31 > 0:27:35this is not a trial. The evidence is not at issue.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39My lord, but the process by which the evidence was acquired is.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43It appears to us that there is another individual involved,

0:27:43 > 0:27:46someone who is right at the heart of this case

0:27:46 > 0:27:50and whose...whose role and motive, as of yet, we don't understand.

0:27:50 > 0:27:54My lord, this is all speculation

0:27:54 > 0:27:57and it's making the UK extradition process look ridiculous.

0:27:57 > 0:28:01The presence of this individual and his relationship to the security services

0:28:01 > 0:28:04opens up questions that this court has to address.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06My client says he's innocent,

0:28:06 > 0:28:13so why did the United States pass us MI5 material that had been falsified?

0:28:13 > 0:28:15What do you mean, falsified?

0:28:15 > 0:28:19We believe there was a fourth person at this meeting, my lord,

0:28:19 > 0:28:23and his presence has been obscured.

0:28:23 > 0:28:24FOOTSTEPS

0:28:28 > 0:28:32And you say that fourth person has been airbrushed out?

0:28:32 > 0:28:34- ELIZABETH:- My lord...

0:28:36 > 0:28:42Miss Costello, whatever the role of this individual, if he or she exists,

0:28:42 > 0:28:45the court cannot grant you permission to see everything you want to see.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47- But, my lord... - A great deal

0:28:47 > 0:28:51of the material you've requested is classified intelligence material.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53- MARTHA:- Well, until this court examines that material,

0:28:53 > 0:28:58then none of can say whether my client deserves to stand trial or not.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18KNOCKS AT DOOR

0:29:21 > 0:29:23You asked to see me?

0:29:33 > 0:29:36She's...

0:29:36 > 0:29:38very tenacious, Martha Costello.

0:29:38 > 0:29:40HE SCOFFS

0:29:40 > 0:29:43She's, er...committed.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45Well, as a result of her efforts,

0:29:45 > 0:29:49the Rashid Hirani extradition is now spiralling out of control.

0:29:50 > 0:29:54She wants to see all classified evidence against her client.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59The Americans are going berserk. They thought they had their man on the plane.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04There is clearly an issue.

0:30:04 > 0:30:09The exact role of an informant, on which far too much seems to rest.

0:30:10 > 0:30:16You know the usual solution in situations that involve this much sensitive material?

0:30:16 > 0:30:18You appoint someone to look at it,

0:30:18 > 0:30:21who then makes sure that everyone's being fair to the defendant

0:30:21 > 0:30:24without actually telling him what any of it says.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27I need someone independent, Clive,

0:30:27 > 0:30:33but also someone who understands the true complexity of the, er...situation.

0:30:33 > 0:30:38We have a treaty with the US, a treaty we...we can't afford to damage.

0:30:40 > 0:30:46Our security services are in a...delicate situation.

0:30:46 > 0:30:48You know I'm in chambers with Martha Costello?

0:30:48 > 0:30:51Tiny world, the Criminal Bar.

0:30:51 > 0:30:54We'd never get anything done if you couldn't do cases with people you know.

0:30:55 > 0:30:59And I'm sure you're entirely independent-minded.

0:31:01 > 0:31:04Well done. We've just heard.

0:31:04 > 0:31:07Er...yeah, just between you and me, I'd love to know how it happened.

0:31:08 > 0:31:11- She knew who I was.- Who?

0:31:11 > 0:31:12Elizabeth Forester.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14She must have seen your name on chambers' website.

0:31:14 > 0:31:19The whole thing about special counsel is it's meant to be independent, Harriet.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21Couldn't agree more.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24Ah, special counsel, sir. Great honour.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26- Who gave you the news? - Lord Justice Reynolds.

0:31:26 > 0:31:30Just you and him, was it? Cosy little chat?

0:31:30 > 0:31:33Stood the Church clock at ten to three? And was there honey still for tea?

0:31:33 > 0:31:35- I'm my own man, Billy. - Course you are, sir.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37Of course he is.

0:31:53 > 0:31:56They came to me. I didn't approach them, if that's what you're thinking.

0:31:56 > 0:31:58Yeah, well, you could have said no.

0:31:58 > 0:31:59How often does something like this come along?

0:31:59 > 0:32:03- SHE LAUGHS - Oh, come on, Clive. You're being incredibly naive.

0:32:03 > 0:32:06You don't think they picked you because you're the right man for the job?

0:32:06 > 0:32:09They picked you because they want to wind me up.

0:32:09 > 0:32:11They? Who are they? You're being delusional.

0:32:11 > 0:32:14I saw how you reacted to the material the US served. And what?

0:32:14 > 0:32:17All of a sudden, you're the only person who can look at secret material

0:32:17 > 0:32:22and tell me whether someone else has unfairly incriminated my client?

0:32:22 > 0:32:23Yes.

0:32:25 > 0:32:27- How does Elizabeth know you? - She doesn't.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29And don't you think she might be a bit more concerned

0:32:29 > 0:32:30about how well you know me?

0:32:35 > 0:32:38I knew I had to reply immediately.

0:32:38 > 0:32:40CW: Why?

0:32:40 > 0:32:42Because of what they would do if I didn't.

0:32:42 > 0:32:44What was that, Ashley?

0:32:44 > 0:32:47They would threaten me,

0:32:47 > 0:32:50and when they saw me again they would make me do things.

0:32:52 > 0:32:53What sort of things?

0:32:53 > 0:32:56They would force me to have sex.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01So,

0:33:01 > 0:33:03these...

0:33:03 > 0:33:07texts and e-mails from you to the defendants...

0:33:07 > 0:33:09I sent them because I had to.

0:33:09 > 0:33:15Are you saying that you feel you had no choice other than to send them?

0:33:15 > 0:33:17No.

0:33:17 > 0:33:21None. I had no choice. I had to do whatever they wanted.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24Thank you, Ashley.

0:33:37 > 0:33:41"I sucked your cock, you fat bastard.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43"You owe me the drugs."

0:33:43 > 0:33:46- Did you write that, Ashley? - I don't remember.

0:33:46 > 0:33:47It's here in black and white,

0:33:47 > 0:33:53one of 25 texts you sent over a two-hour period

0:33:53 > 0:33:55on June 29th.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59"Give me the drugs."

0:33:59 > 0:34:02"Where are the drugs?" "You owe me those drugs."

0:34:02 > 0:34:05- They used the drugs to control me! - The truth is, Ashley,

0:34:05 > 0:34:08that you were a prostitute. Isn't that right?

0:34:08 > 0:34:09No.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11You were a prostitute and you willingly gave those men

0:34:11 > 0:34:13- sex for drugs.- No!

0:34:13 > 0:34:16And if the frequency of these calls proves anything,

0:34:16 > 0:34:18it proves that you were determined

0:34:18 > 0:34:20to extract whatever payment you could from them.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22That's not true!

0:34:22 > 0:34:25Shall I read the last text that you sent that day?

0:34:25 > 0:34:28"Give me the drugs, you bastards,

0:34:28 > 0:34:32"or I'll call the cops and tell them what a bunch of paedos you are."

0:34:32 > 0:34:34MUTTERING

0:34:34 > 0:34:37That's why we're here, isn't it?

0:34:37 > 0:34:42Because these men didn't pay their prostitute on time.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46Lunch?

0:34:49 > 0:34:51DOOR SHUTS BEEPING

0:34:53 > 0:34:57The court has appointed someone called special counsel.

0:34:58 > 0:35:03That means all the material that's been used to establish a case against you

0:35:03 > 0:35:04is going to be examined

0:35:04 > 0:35:07so there's no point in protecting anyone any more.

0:35:07 > 0:35:09Do you understand?

0:35:10 > 0:35:13Now, whoever it is that you don't want to get into trouble,

0:35:13 > 0:35:17whoever it is you thought you were being loyal to,

0:35:17 > 0:35:20well, odds are that's who's betrayed you

0:35:20 > 0:35:24and that's who MI5 are working with.

0:35:24 > 0:35:27So you need to tell me everything.

0:35:29 > 0:35:30Rashid?

0:35:37 > 0:35:39It was after...

0:35:39 > 0:35:41a big drone attack

0:35:41 > 0:35:43on the Pakistani border.

0:35:45 > 0:35:48The deaths used to get reported in the mosque...

0:35:49 > 0:35:51..and this time a whole family died.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55Four kids under ten.

0:35:59 > 0:36:03There was a lot of anger, people saying someone had to do something.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06Even the imam was furious.

0:36:09 > 0:36:14Finally, as we were leaving, Salim said he knew some people we could talk to.

0:36:16 > 0:36:17What did he say?

0:36:17 > 0:36:20He said he knew these two brothers in our hall...

0:36:22 > 0:36:23..and they were planning something.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25The Makhdoom brothers?

0:36:26 > 0:36:28Salim had met them before.

0:36:30 > 0:36:33We talked, we prayed.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35They told us they had a plan.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37They didn't say what.

0:36:37 > 0:36:41They said they knew I was good with computers

0:36:41 > 0:36:45and could use the help getting security details of the University of West Arizona.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47HE SIGHS

0:36:48 > 0:36:50I agreed.

0:36:53 > 0:36:55But, straight after, I got scared.

0:36:56 > 0:36:58I didn't want to be part of it.

0:36:58 > 0:37:02I told Salim I didn't want to do it. I... I didn't want to be involved.

0:37:02 > 0:37:05So you were never in his room doing that research?

0:37:05 > 0:37:07No.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09But Salim went back in.

0:37:09 > 0:37:12He must have done it, not me.

0:37:12 > 0:37:15- Then what happened? - I don't know.

0:37:15 > 0:37:19After I told him I didn't want to do it, I...I saw him with them one more time

0:37:22 > 0:37:23And then he told me he'd pulled out too.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26Did he say why?

0:37:32 > 0:37:34A few months later, the attacks happened.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37I mean, we couldn't believe it. We were terrified.

0:37:39 > 0:37:43But we promised we'd never say anything to incriminate the other.

0:37:43 > 0:37:45And you thought he'd stuck to that?

0:37:49 > 0:37:55I thought our friendship was part of my faith.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58DANI: You know what we used to think in my family?

0:37:58 > 0:38:00We used to think our problem with the next generation

0:38:00 > 0:38:02would be that they'd be too westernised,

0:38:02 > 0:38:06that we'd struggle to get them interested in our traditions.

0:38:06 > 0:38:10Dani, you've got contacts in the police.

0:38:12 > 0:38:15How about we go and have our own little conversation with Salim?

0:38:53 > 0:38:54Thank you for seeing us.

0:38:54 > 0:38:56What can I do for you?

0:38:56 > 0:38:58I'm professionally embarrassed.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00What do you mean? How?

0:39:00 > 0:39:02In the short adjournment, I went to the robing room.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05On the desk next to my bag, there was a sheet of paper.

0:39:05 > 0:39:08I wasn't thinking, and I started to read it.

0:39:08 > 0:39:09Well, what was it?

0:39:09 > 0:39:12The first defendant's proof of evidence.

0:39:12 > 0:39:17I'm afraid I have completely inadvertently given myself a huge advantage,

0:39:17 > 0:39:21essentially meaning that these defendants wouldn't get a fair trial,

0:39:21 > 0:39:22were I to continue prosecuting.

0:39:22 > 0:39:28SHE SIGHS It is with great reluctance, I am obliged to withdraw,

0:39:28 > 0:39:31as the bishop said to the actress.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33Mr Lever?

0:39:34 > 0:39:38I'm not sure my learned friend is so embarrassed she can't continue.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40What you mean is that it's going really well for you right now

0:39:40 > 0:39:42and the last thing you want to do is stop.

0:39:42 > 0:39:45She's got a junior. Did she read the defendant's proof?

0:39:46 > 0:39:48The whole point of having a junior

0:39:48 > 0:39:51is that they can take over in a situation like this.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56No, she didn't read it.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58But...

0:40:00 > 0:40:02..I did tell her what I'd read.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07Then I have no choice but to discharge the jury

0:40:07 > 0:40:10and order a new trial as soon as possible.

0:40:10 > 0:40:16It is with huge regret that I'm afraid I just don't see any other way out.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Salim. What are you reading?

0:40:29 > 0:40:31Politics?

0:40:33 > 0:40:36After the attack, I didn't sleep for days.

0:40:37 > 0:40:40Rashid had gone home, but I was still at college.

0:40:41 > 0:40:43It only took 'em 48 hours to pick me up

0:40:43 > 0:40:46and then it was straight to Paddington Green,

0:40:46 > 0:40:4814 days' detention,

0:40:48 > 0:40:52and every day being told they've got evidence

0:40:52 > 0:40:55that could have me facing 150 years in a US jail.

0:40:55 > 0:40:58I know what I'd do. I'd say anything to get out of there.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01- I didn't say anything. - MARTHA:- But you did.

0:41:01 > 0:41:02You told them

0:41:02 > 0:41:05that Rashid had hacked into the university security plans for the brothers.

0:41:05 > 0:41:09How could I have done it? He was the one who knew how to do that, not me.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11Did you see him? I mean, did you actually see him,

0:41:11 > 0:41:14in your room, at your machine, doing that research?

0:41:14 > 0:41:17You think Rashid is innocent, because he's awkward and shy,

0:41:17 > 0:41:20but you don't know him.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23You didn't hear him talk every night when we read the Koran.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26He was the one who said infidels would get what they deserved.

0:41:26 > 0:41:30- Did you see him or not, Salim? - I pulled out, OK?

0:41:30 > 0:41:31Once I heard the details,

0:41:31 > 0:41:33I didn't want anything to do with what the brothers were planning.

0:41:33 > 0:41:38Neither did Rashid, so why incriminate him? Why do a deal with MI5?

0:41:38 > 0:41:42You don't understand. I...I don't like what I've done to him,

0:41:42 > 0:41:44but...but I had no choice.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46No, you did,

0:41:46 > 0:41:49and you still have.

0:41:49 > 0:41:50You can come to court.

0:41:50 > 0:41:55Come to court and admit that you never saw him do that hacking.

0:41:59 > 0:42:00It's too late for that.

0:42:23 > 0:42:24I went to see Salim Dasti.

0:42:26 > 0:42:28- What? - This whole case

0:42:28 > 0:42:31rests on the word of one terrified boy against another,

0:42:31 > 0:42:33and no proof of which is telling the truth.

0:42:33 > 0:42:35Martha, enough.

0:42:35 > 0:42:39Look, come on, Clive. Nobody's listening.

0:42:39 > 0:42:43Why don't you talk to me properly? What have you seen?

0:42:46 > 0:42:49All I'll say is, is that somebody helped the brothers.

0:42:49 > 0:42:51They didn't plan the attack alone.

0:42:51 > 0:42:54Salim was at the same meeting as Rashid,

0:42:54 > 0:42:56so why not charge both boys?

0:42:56 > 0:42:59Why work with one and punish the other?

0:43:00 > 0:43:04What if I told you that there was something in the files

0:43:04 > 0:43:07that has convinced me that Rashid was involved?

0:43:07 > 0:43:09I wouldn't believe you.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11You don't think I'd be honest with you?

0:43:13 > 0:43:18I'm going to call Salim to give evidence, make him tell the truth.

0:43:18 > 0:43:21PUB CHATTER

0:43:21 > 0:43:23Want a drink, miss?

0:43:25 > 0:43:27Excuse me.

0:43:27 > 0:43:30CLEARS THROAT

0:43:31 > 0:43:34Billy, Amy came to see me.

0:43:34 > 0:43:37- About what? - You promising her tenancy.

0:43:37 > 0:43:39So?

0:43:39 > 0:43:41With your hand on her knee.

0:43:41 > 0:43:43- HE SCOFFS - Hang on!

0:43:43 > 0:43:45- She's very upset, Billy. - Well, she's got it wrong.

0:43:47 > 0:43:48- How? - It's not what it looks like.

0:43:48 > 0:43:51- Then what the hell is it?- I couldn't have done anything like that.

0:43:51 > 0:43:55I... Miss, since I've had the implants, I can't even...

0:43:57 > 0:44:00- This is how it is for me now. - Oh, Billy.

0:44:00 > 0:44:02No, I don't want your pity, miss,

0:44:02 > 0:44:08but I want you to know that I didn't do anything ugly or untoward with Miss Lang.

0:44:08 > 0:44:09That is a misunderstanding.

0:44:09 > 0:44:12Well, you need to apologise and tell her what's going on.

0:44:12 > 0:44:14Miss?

0:44:14 > 0:44:19You promised me that if this was affecting Shoe Lane, you would tell me.

0:44:22 > 0:44:24If Amy makes an official complaint...

0:44:27 > 0:44:29- It's the only way, Billy. - HE SIGHS

0:44:49 > 0:44:51KNOCKS AT DOOR

0:44:52 > 0:44:54Miss.

0:44:54 > 0:44:56Miss.

0:44:56 > 0:44:59I've told Amy you've got something to say.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02Something you want to explain.

0:45:04 > 0:45:06HE SIGHS

0:45:08 > 0:45:10I can't.

0:45:13 > 0:45:17Just... Just give him till the end of the day, please.

0:45:25 > 0:45:28- Salim? - He hasn't shown.

0:45:30 > 0:45:35My client now admits he was at a meeting with the Makhdoom brothers.

0:45:35 > 0:45:38However, it was at someone else's behest

0:45:38 > 0:45:41and that was the full limit of his involvement.

0:45:41 > 0:45:43My lord, I'm afraid that is not a position

0:45:43 > 0:45:45which is supported by the redacted material.

0:45:46 > 0:45:51My lord, sorry, is there any chance of the court actually seeing this evidence?

0:45:51 > 0:45:52If you don't have proof

0:45:52 > 0:45:55that your client has been implicated through an abuse of process,

0:45:55 > 0:45:59then I'm afraid this application is at an end.

0:45:59 > 0:46:01We're going to adjourn for ten minutes,

0:46:01 > 0:46:05during which I want you to consider your position.

0:46:06 > 0:46:07USHER: All rise.

0:46:19 > 0:46:21HE SIGHS

0:46:22 > 0:46:25You're doing their job for them, and I don't understand why.

0:46:25 > 0:46:28I'm telling the court what I've seen. That's all.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32Well, let's find out the truth.

0:46:36 > 0:46:38My name is Salim Dasti.

0:46:39 > 0:46:43I was at college with Rashid and...I was his friend.

0:46:44 > 0:46:48Have you ever been at a meeting with the Makhdoom brothers?

0:46:48 > 0:46:50Yes.

0:46:51 > 0:46:55- Who else was there? - Rashid.

0:46:55 > 0:46:57And can you tell the court what happened at that meeting?

0:46:58 > 0:47:01Rashid and I talked with the brothers,

0:47:01 > 0:47:03and, um...they explained

0:47:03 > 0:47:08that they were serious about using their student exchange to do something...

0:47:09 > 0:47:12..something that would show the Americans how we felt

0:47:12 > 0:47:14about the way innocent Muslims were being killed.

0:47:15 > 0:47:18And then what happened?

0:47:18 > 0:47:21They said that, if we were serious, we had to prove it.

0:47:22 > 0:47:25Rashid and I had to help them get security details for their attack.

0:47:25 > 0:47:28But Rashid didn't go through with it, did he?

0:47:29 > 0:47:34You went ahead, but Rashid backed out.

0:47:34 > 0:47:35No.

0:47:35 > 0:47:37It was the other way around.

0:47:37 > 0:47:39I backed out.

0:47:39 > 0:47:41I told him I didn't want to go through with it,

0:47:41 > 0:47:43and then I went back into my room.

0:47:43 > 0:47:44Then why did you tell this court

0:47:44 > 0:47:48that Rashid did the research from the same room?

0:47:48 > 0:47:51Because he did. The evidence they showed me proved he did.

0:47:51 > 0:47:54Your claim doesn't make any sense.

0:47:54 > 0:47:57You've said that you went back to your room alone,

0:47:57 > 0:48:00and then you insisted that this is where Rashid did his research.

0:48:00 > 0:48:03I mean, how can you expect us to believe you?

0:48:03 > 0:48:07Because when I told him I wanted to back out, he told me he wouldn't.

0:48:07 > 0:48:10He said he didn't care if I didn't have the guts.

0:48:10 > 0:48:12He would show the brothers he wasn't scared.

0:48:12 > 0:48:14- He's lying! - You know what you said.

0:48:14 > 0:48:17Calm down. I'm warning both of you.

0:48:17 > 0:48:20You're lying, Salim, and MI5 know that,

0:48:20 > 0:48:24and that's why they've done everything they can to hide your involvement.

0:48:24 > 0:48:26No, that's...that's not true.

0:48:26 > 0:48:31I don't know how he did that hacking from my computer, but he did it,

0:48:31 > 0:48:34and the reason MI5 protected me is nothing to do with that.

0:48:34 > 0:48:37Then what is it? I mean, why cover up your presence?

0:48:37 > 0:48:40Why remove you from the photographs?

0:48:43 > 0:48:47Salim, you are obliged to give this court an answer.

0:48:50 > 0:48:53Because I didn't just back out. I called them.

0:48:54 > 0:48:57After that meeting with the brothers, I panicked.

0:49:00 > 0:49:02I found a number and I... I called a helpline...

0:49:05 > 0:49:08..and I told the person I spoke to that something might happen.

0:49:10 > 0:49:12And what did they do?

0:49:13 > 0:49:14Nothing.

0:49:16 > 0:49:20They took my details and they said they'd call back, but they never called me.

0:49:21 > 0:49:23That's why we're all here,

0:49:23 > 0:49:27because our intelligence services were too busy to make a call,

0:49:27 > 0:49:31and then, because they knew how it looked, they offered me a deal.

0:49:32 > 0:49:35They hauled me in after the bomb went off,

0:49:35 > 0:49:39and they told me that they had enough to send me to prison.

0:49:40 > 0:49:44They said that if I could give them enough about Rashid's role,

0:49:44 > 0:49:46then...then I could avoid it, because...

0:49:47 > 0:49:50..because then, at least, the US would have a proper conspirator to put on trial.

0:50:00 > 0:50:03Can I point out that this admission doesn't change the fact

0:50:03 > 0:50:06that Rashid Hirani was at that meeting?

0:50:06 > 0:50:09He agreed to do research on the proposed attack

0:50:09 > 0:50:11and there is no other person who could have done it.

0:50:14 > 0:50:16We will retire to consider our decision.

0:50:16 > 0:50:20Mr Reader, we may call on you for assistance.

0:50:21 > 0:50:23USHER: All rise.

0:50:28 > 0:50:30So that's what this has been about?

0:50:30 > 0:50:34Sending my nephew to America so no-one would know MI5 screwed up?

0:50:34 > 0:50:35I can't comment,

0:50:35 > 0:50:38except to say that from what I've seen Rashid deserves to stand trial.

0:50:38 > 0:50:39If we lose this,

0:50:39 > 0:50:43I'll make sure journalists on both sides of the Atlantic know about Salim's call,

0:50:43 > 0:50:46and then we'll know what the public cares about,

0:50:46 > 0:50:51a kid who made the mistake of going to one meeting or MI5 letting a bomb go off.

0:50:57 > 0:50:58- QUIETLY:- I hope you're not going to let him do that.

0:50:58 > 0:51:00What else can he do?

0:51:00 > 0:51:03Martha, it's human error. Trust me. How many calls do MI5 get right?

0:51:03 > 0:51:06How many great decisions have they made that we've never even heard about?

0:51:06 > 0:51:08Rashid Hirani is my client

0:51:08 > 0:51:12and Rashid's been made to suffer to cover MI5's cock-up.

0:51:15 > 0:51:18Billy, did we ever get that psych report for Rashid?

0:51:29 > 0:51:31HE PANTS

0:51:33 > 0:51:35Miss!

0:51:35 > 0:51:38- Billy. - It was in your in-tray.

0:51:38 > 0:51:40- Thank you. - Uh.

0:51:41 > 0:51:43Oh...

0:51:46 > 0:51:47HE SIGHS

0:51:51 > 0:51:52Clive.

0:51:54 > 0:51:55Clive.

0:52:02 > 0:52:06- This is your solution? - It's a solution.

0:52:06 > 0:52:09And it's better than MI5 looking stupid over an innocent kid.

0:52:27 > 0:52:29I just came to see how you were.

0:52:29 > 0:52:31Why?

0:52:31 > 0:52:34Well, it's unusual for prosecuting counsel to be embarrassed.

0:52:34 > 0:52:37Well, I was.

0:52:37 > 0:52:39Right.

0:52:39 > 0:52:41So, how's chambers?

0:52:41 > 0:52:45Dysfunctional, riven with political internal infighting.

0:52:45 > 0:52:48Nothing changes, then.

0:52:48 > 0:52:51Maybe what you need is a break.

0:52:51 > 0:52:53I've never felt less like taking a break.

0:52:53 > 0:52:57I'm going to stand in this election to replace you, and I intend to win it,

0:52:57 > 0:52:59and when I do, things are going to change.

0:53:02 > 0:53:04Matt Busby made it hard for everyone who followed him.

0:53:05 > 0:53:07What?

0:53:07 > 0:53:10We probably don't need an elder statesman coming back,

0:53:10 > 0:53:12giving sage-like advice, Alan.

0:53:15 > 0:53:17Well, then, all I can do is wish you luck.

0:53:32 > 0:53:34LOW CHATTER

0:53:54 > 0:53:57We have arrived at our decision.

0:53:57 > 0:54:01Our judgment has been strongly affected

0:54:01 > 0:54:07by the report into the psychiatric condition of the applicant, Rashid Hirani.

0:54:07 > 0:54:11We are particularly influenced by the fact

0:54:11 > 0:54:16that, although it was commissioned by Mr Hirani's legal team,

0:54:16 > 0:54:20it is also endorsed by the security services.

0:54:22 > 0:54:24We rule that Rashid Hirani

0:54:24 > 0:54:28is not fit to endure conditions he would find in US custody

0:54:28 > 0:54:31and must remain here.

0:54:31 > 0:54:36Since there are no charges against you here, Mr Hirani,

0:54:36 > 0:54:40it is my duty to inform you that you are now a free man.

0:54:46 > 0:54:47USHER: All rise.

0:54:51 > 0:54:54- Martha, well done. - Thank you.

0:54:54 > 0:54:56Thank you.

0:54:58 > 0:55:01This would be the heart, wouldn't it, if you had to say?

0:55:01 > 0:55:03Hm?

0:55:03 > 0:55:05This place would be the heart of our legal system,

0:55:05 > 0:55:08and there's nobody here, just you and me and the truth.

0:55:09 > 0:55:12There was no evidence to link him to that hacking.

0:55:12 > 0:55:15The evidence was still being uncovered. That's not the same thing.

0:55:15 > 0:55:18Clive, they couldn't put him in that room where the research was done.

0:55:18 > 0:55:19It is as simple as that.

0:55:19 > 0:55:22Is it?

0:55:22 > 0:55:24What's this?

0:55:24 > 0:55:26It's a string of code from a Trojan virus,

0:55:26 > 0:55:29found by forensic officers examining Salim's hard drive.

0:55:29 > 0:55:31His computer was infected with software,

0:55:31 > 0:55:33which allowed somebody to control it remotely

0:55:33 > 0:55:35and then destroy all traces of their work.

0:55:36 > 0:55:41Now, there's nothing to link it to Rashid, yet, which is why I couldn't use it.

0:55:41 > 0:55:44But I can't think of anyone else who could have put it there, can you?

0:55:49 > 0:55:52There's more than one way for him to have been in that room, Martha.

0:55:53 > 0:55:55Yeah, it's a great talent,

0:55:55 > 0:55:58the ability to convince people that you're a helpless victim,

0:55:58 > 0:56:01when you're pulling the strings all the way.

0:57:00 > 0:57:02I'd like to make an official complaint...

0:57:05 > 0:57:06..against Billy.

0:57:26 > 0:57:28I won't blame you, miss...

0:57:29 > 0:57:31..if you feel you can't stand by me on this one.

0:57:33 > 0:57:34I'll understand.

0:57:42 > 0:57:44Help me, please, miss.

0:58:02 > 0:58:04Go and tell your self-pitying paedo,

0:58:04 > 0:58:07he will never recover from what I do to him in cross-examination.

0:58:07 > 0:58:10- Please come with me, sir.- Head of chambers, it's a three-way tie.

0:58:10 > 0:58:12- When are we deciding on Amy? - Next week.

0:58:12 > 0:58:15It's my application to join chambers.

0:58:15 > 0:58:18Imagine how embarrassed you'd be. You'd need a big drink.

0:58:18 > 0:58:21- Are you OK? - I need you, Martha.

0:58:21 > 0:58:24We have this rule, never represent a friend.

0:58:24 > 0:58:26- You're jealous.- Mm.

0:58:26 > 0:58:27SHOUTING

0:58:27 > 0:58:30- ALARM BLARES - Help!
