By April 3, 2024No Comments

Joseph Carr was recently instructed to represent a 40-year-old man charged with being concerned in the supply of cocaine, in a trial which lasted five weeks at Southampton Crown Court. The defendant was one of five accused of involvement in an enterprise operating principally over ‘Encrochat’ between 2019 and 2020, believed to be responsible for the trafficking of around 95kg of cocaine.

 

The trial involved extensive analysis of telephone communications, call data records, surveillance evidence, ANPR data, and financial documentation. The jury unanimously acquitted Joseph’s client, along with the four co-defendants, after deliberating for three days.

 

Joseph was instructed by Rumit Shah of Galbraith Branley Solicitors.
