Kyah Mufti acted for the Defendant, YR, in a trial where the prosecution alleged that YR had trespassed on his ex-employers’ property and stolen items in order to blackmail his ex-employers for money.

The prosecution relied on CCTV of YR entering the business premises and removing the items, and a recorded phone conversation of YR’s demand for money. The case involved lengthy cross examination of the ex-employers, in particular relating to large sums of unpaid wages to YR and communications between YR and the ex-employers.
