It is reported that the Met Police will now investigate

a News of The World link concerning the Daniel

Morgan Murder (R v Vian & Others).Details reported

[here] in the Guardian

Mr Glen Vian, represented by Bark & Co, was

acquitted in March 2011.Fred Bunn has been

instructed by Glenn Vian since the mid-2008.  Not

guilty verdicts were entered against MrVian and the

other defendants, following complex and fiercely

fought challenges to the Crown’s case during

protracted pre-trial legal argument.

The initial investigation into the murder of

Daniel Morgan in 1987 was deeply flawed, and

many compelling leads were not pursued

properly or, in some cases, at all.  The level of

public resources expended in this most recent

investigation is simply breathtaking.  The Police

bought the house next door to Mr Vian, in

order to conduct thousands of hours of

intrusive covert surveillance upon him and his

family.

They released false stories to the press in an effort to

trigger incriminating conversations.  When these efforts

failed to produce any cogent evidence, a case was built

against these defendants using “Supergrass” witnesses,

and considerably flawed Serious Organized Crime &

Police Act (SOCPA) agreements.  It will come as no

surprise to right thinking people to learn that those of

the worst character, facing many years in custody for

crimes including drug trafficking and attempted

murder, will say anything in order to secure a massive

reduction in their sentence and/or substantial financial

benefits.

The position is very much worse where, as in this

case, a SOCPA witness is told in advance what the

case theory is, and simply has to repeat it to gain his

reward.  The defense has, in the course of pre-trial

legal arguments, been able to discredit the Crown’s

case so that, one by one, the evidence of these

witnesses has been excluded by the trial Judge or

abandoned by the Crown.

The recent legal arguments which preceded the collapse of the

case were led by our defense team, based on a document found

in the unused material by a solicitor of this firm.
