Dear Sir John, Good!
28
I am writing to tell you that on Monday the Chairman of the Bar, the leader of the legal profession, indicated that he intends to refer the Osman case to the next Home Secretary, as soon as we have one.
This is an unprecedented move and implies that the Crown has lost the Bar on this matter. It also implies to me that the Bar has lost confidence in the Lord Chancellor's office in relation to the case.
Over the past several months I have provided you with a sufficiency of evidence to prove amongst other things, that;
1. Hong Kong misled the High Court in a major way in its Adkins affidavit of 15/6/1992.
2. That HK had made false allegations against Mr. Osman, to falsely secure his detention and return to HK.
3. That there was prima facia evidence of a conspiracy to pervert the course of justice in HK. (The Chooi minutes).
I cannot know what you did or did not do. All I know is that this corrupt, crooked and wrong'persecutionʼand false imprisonment has continued, and no apparent effort has been made to investigate the matter.
In my submissions to the Parliamentary investigation which I anticipate will be held into the affair, I intend to submit all my correspondence with you. I feel betrayed and deeply aggrieved by your apparent inaction in a matter as serious as this, but hope that I am wrong and that you were overridden by Ministers.
cc. Rt Hon Gerald Kaufman PC,
cc. Mr George Robertson, cc. Mr Donald Anderson.
