Membership of proscribed organisation win
Sonn Macmillan Walker acted in a case at the Central Criminal Court involving a number of people accused of membership of a proscribed organisation.
Following a trial in summer 2018 two defendants were convicted of membership of National Action, a banned organisation. The jury failed to reach a verdict on four others including our client. At a retrial in early 2019 a second jury were also unable to reach a verdict against our client. As a result the prosecution offered no evidence against him.
Co-defendants who were convicted of the same offence were sentenced to 8 and 6 years’ imprisonment. A further defendant awaits sentence. Tim Walker was the solicitor for our client with Adam Davis QC and Tim Forte acting as his barristers.
